Used rosh.c32 from syslinux-3.74-pre11. When I typed 'pzd' in the shell: > pzd /boot/syslinux > pwd /boot/syslinux I use an azerty keyboard. Due to that I typed 'pzd'. Is it a feature or a bug? Gert Hulsemans

I got the following message with chain.c32 ===================== Loader file too largeBoot: ===================== Like you can see, there should be a new line after 'large'. I guess that some other error messages, will result in the same behavior. Gert Hulselmans $ diff -u com32/modules/chain.c.old com32/modules/chain.c.new --- com32/modules/chain.c.old 2009-08-17

The following patch for chain.c32 adds support to boot the Recovery Console of Windows NT/2K/XP. Normally when you want to boot the recovery console, you need to patch "cmdcons\0" into the bootsectorof the partition (8 bytes starting at 0x3 (4th byte)). We can do this patching in memory: strcpy((char *) 0x7c03, "cmdcons"); To boot the recovery console with chain.c32:

chain.c32 of SYSLINUX 3.82 does set the boot drive passed to the DL register to 0x80 and not to the boot drive (CD-drive). This can be a problem if you want to chainload grldr (grub4dos bootloader) from a CD and if you want to let grldr search for its menu.lst file on the CD. For more info: http://www.boot-land.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=8457 This 1 line patch fixes the issue (Thanks to

I and some other people have problems with running the freedos image included in Ultimate Boot CD (UBCD), when using memdisk for floppy emulation. Memdisk starts booting the image and freedos shows the following menu: 0 Boot Clean 1 Boot UMBPCI (silent) 2 Boot UMBPCI (optimal) 3 Boot UMBPCI (semi-defensive) 4 Boot EMM386 (optimal) 5 Boot EMM386 (semi-defensive) 6 Boot no UMB (defensive) 7 Boot

When you add "quiet" to the append line, Syslinux doesn't display the file reading progress anymore. When you use this option to boot an image with MEMDISK, you still get a lot of text. ========================== LABEL mydisk LINUX memdisk INITRD mydisk.img APPEND raw quiet ========================== The following patch makes MEMDISK silent when the quiet keyword is passed to the

hpa, will there be support for lzma and bzip compressed kernels, initrds and images in one of the following releases of syslinux? I saw that you want lzma and bzip2 compression included in the kernel: http://groups.google.com/group/linux.kernel/browse_thread/thread/f415aa765c09c9f7/dae008992e14840f?lnk=raot&pli=1 Gert Hulselmans

A floppy image with Drive Fitness Test hangs in VirtualBox 3, while the same iso works fine in Qemu. Tested with MEMDISK from Syslinux 3.83-pre6. Adding raw or bigraw doesn't help. The image hangs with the text: ========================== loading bootsector..... loaded... starting PCDos... ========================== You can find the gzipped floppy image with Drive Fitness Test at the

Hi Shao Miller, I found another ISO that doesn't work with MEMDISK-ISO. It is the ISO of the PloP bootmanager. It is a ISO which uses floppy emulation. When I boot it with MEMDISK-ISO (run from Syslinux), my PC instantly reboots. When I extract the floppy image from the ISO and boot this file with MEMDISK, it works fine. Grub4dos iso emulation works fine for this iso. When using Grub4dos

I would like to see that it is possible to specify which config file should be loaded. I would like to have an extension of the CONFIG command. Normally CONFIG loads the file that is specified after it. It should be nice if syslinux/isolinux/pxelinux/extlinux can choose which config file to load, based on the bootloader from which the current config is runned. If I will explain it with an

Improving chain.c32 help message Impact: Error message is more detailed In case of syntax error, the message is far more detailed and provides the same content as the documentation integrated in the source code.

This patch builds a floppy image with contains HDT, so users of GRUB or GRUB4DOS can use HDT too, without installing Syslinux. When you compile Syslinux, this floppy image isn't build automatically. To build it, runthe following from the extracted Syslinux source: $ cd ./com32/hdt $ make hdt.img As suggested by Pierre-Alexandre Meyer, all extra files required for building the floppy
