...to bring this up again but I can't quit get this too work. I'm trying to build a 2.88 floppy image so that I can use PXE to load Ghost. I'm useing the following to get a copy of the bootsector: dd if=/dev/fd0 of=bootblock bs=512 count=1 Then I build the image file with: mformat -C -t 160 -s 18 -h 2 -B bootblock x: Then use mcopy to put the required files into the image.

Hi *, In an attempt to go back to the drawing board and learn RoR some more - I have built the depot application from the agile book.

I am sure this is connected to the

Hi All, First post and hopefully someone can steer me in the right direction for this problem. I did a bit of googling and found some hints but nothing concrete. We are using Syslinux and a FAT32 USB thumb drive (single partition) to boot a customized Debian OS which works very well with newer motherboards. However we have a few older Dell machines that simply hangs when trying to boot

...t using windows, vmware or other tools of that kind)? Is it perhaps even possible to create larger disk images (>2.88MB)? It's no problem to get an image with a DOS filesystem, but I'd really like to use some linux tools to make it bootable. Something like: "msys a:" of "mformat /s a:" would be fine :-) Any ideas?

...05 but have tried 2.03 as well Here is the procedure we normally use. This is typically fully unattended. We boot a small linux distro using pxelinux. Then we copy in mbr.bin from the syslinux package. dd if=mbr.bin of=/dev/[hs]da bs=512 count=1 Then we fdisk the drive with a 64 meg partition, mformat it FAT16, set it active, bootable. Then we run syslinux /dev/[hs]da1, copy in some boot files, syslinux.cfg and reboot. The boot files may be a kernel/ramdisk, memdisk/floppy ( windows ), or DOS utilities to flash the bios, etc. Upon reboot, the machine goes through its boot order and when it...

I hope I've understand that all, somebody wants to create a floppy-image larger than 2.88MB an use it with memdisk? I have modified a tool from Bart Lagerweij (Big thanks!) and can create Floppy-Images with 5760kB and 8100kB, and boot them with ISOLINUX and MEMDISK (or also with a modified DISKEM1X.BIN), is this what you mean? These tools must run under windows, but booting no problem.

hi: we can create big floopy image under linux. just use mtools. i edit /etc/mtools.conf, then use dd to create a emtpy image, then use mformat to format the image and make it bootable. i now use a 20MB floppy image with memdisk.

...no text, or a 'Boot failed' prompt. if I format and syslinux the card with win2k (formated as 'FAT' (not sure which type it doesnt say)) then I can get a syslinux prompt, however it seems unable to find the kernel image. also, why does syslinux require mtools?

Hello All: I've recently had to provision some RHEL and CentOS VMWare instances. There was no network connectivity so I had to use a kickstart floppy and DVD iso rather than installing from our repository. To create the floppy I used the following: As root: dd if=/dev/zero of=floppy.flp bs=1k count=360 mkfs.vfat floppy.flp mount -o loop floppy.flp /mnt/floppy cp base_kickstart.ks

Hi ! I''m using daemontools[1] to manage a few processes on my Debian box. Among other things, I use it to manage svnserve, because it uses less memory than Apache. My /service/svnserve/run looks like this: #!/bin/sh su svn -c "/usr/local/bin/svnserve --foreground --daemon --root /var/svn" Is it safe for me to run like that ? If an attacker cracks svnserve, what will they
