Sensei H. Peter Anvin, I have successfully modified/enhanced memdisk so that one can chainload a local operating system after running diskless FreeDOS. I would like your advice regarding the appropriate interface for invoking this functionality. In addition, I would like to know what steps to take so that you feel comfortable considering including this in the stan...

For anyone wanting to boot an .ISO with MEMDISK: http://git.etherboot.org/?p=people/andytim/syslinux.git;a=shortlog;h=ref s/heads/memdisk-iso NOTE: Your protected-mode OS (Windows, Linux, *BSD) booted from such a MEMDISK will not magically find the MEMDISK image in RAM and use it as a CD without a MEMDISK driver. There are currently 0 MEMDISK...

Two additions to MEMDISK to support OS drivers. The "safe hook" structure ("Safe Master Boot Record INT 13h Hook Routines") is a means for an OS driver to follow a chain of INT 13h hooks, examining the hooks'' vendors and assuming responsibility for hook functionality along the way. For MEMDIS...

...utput from ELTORITO.SYS (v1.5, syslinux distro) such that it fails. My intent is a LiveCD functionality with a DOS RAMDISK program taking over as drive C:, meaning either no FAT partitions on harddisks and removable disks (as the DOS kernel enumerates them) or using the NOPASSANY parameter for MEMDISK. Different output: * ISO9660 found: drive E0 with address 0800h (omitting nopassany) * Nothing found: drive 70 with address 0000h (nopassany specified) My expectation was that only floppydrives and USB/harddisk units would be hidden. (for that matter I'd prefer booting from USB FAT32 yet hid...

hpa etal, Im trying to get PIRT running on an SBC which has no CD-ROM drive. (an 8 MB ISO which demo's RTAI - RealTime Application Interface, on linux patched with Adeos) (BTW, PIRT uses isolinux) anyway, Im trying to use pxelinux to chainload / memdisk / mboot it, Im having no success. Ive also tried booting memtest86, which I can boot on my laptop using grub, ie title memtest root (hd0,1) kernel /boot/memtest86.img boot but Im unable to morph it into a form that works for pxelinux. cpldr.bin: x86 b...

Hi I'm using memdisk as part of CD Shell' isolinux. I've created custom floppy disk image 8440kB size. I've put FreeDOS kernel and bootsector into the floppy. Boot process goes fine with this command: isolinux /boot/memdisk initrd=/ximg/fdos.img c=60 h=8 s=36 floppy The problems begin when I try to run...

Hi guys, This may be a stupid question... I was trying to get a machine to boot with PXE. Everything supportive is setup, the DNS/DHCP works fine, TFTP is also handing over pxelinux.0 and config files correctly. The problem happens at: label xxx kernel memdisk initrd blabla My machine would report "cannot find kernel: memdisk". When doing a tcpdump, I found the machine actually is sending requests for "memdisk", "memdisk.c" memdisk.* to the tftp server - of coz, I don't have them. A bit more information, I am trying...

Good day to all, Gert Hulselmans requested a feature for MDISKCHK.COM that would function roughly like GETARGS.COM[1] by Murali Krishnan Ganapathy: DOS SET command output for MEMDISK kernel arguments passed by previous boot-loaders. He also needed to support the case for MEMDISK-in-a-MEMDISK type situations, where all MEMDISK kernel arguments could be gathered together and output as a list of DOS SET commands. One way to search for "outer" MEMDISKs is via mBFT an...

HI: i just trying memdisk that comes with syslinux 3.35. i try to load a dos image, which contains ghost verison 8.3 and ghost version 11. both version of ghost hangs when start-up. memdisk that comes with 3.40 pre is ok. and many earlier versions is ok too. i try some parameter like "safeint","raw". b...

I've been trying to use memdisk with grub2 to boot some iso images -( I've done this without any problem with pxe ) There is a memdisk.mod in /boot/grub/ and I've seen some material talking about this, but no example of a menu.
