Hello, the following patches should get multidisk access working. The syntax accepted is the following: (hdx,y)/path/to/file where x is the disk number and start at 0 and the y is the partition number starting at 1. So (hd0,1) is the first partition of the first disk. the other accepted syntax is using MBR's 32 bits disk signature so for ex...

My compliments on the release of syslinux-5.0 and happy holidays to the entire Syslinux team.? I have a longer message in me.? Lots of curiousity about the direction of the project, but that will have to wait until I finish my first 5.0 project (*not* my first Syslinux project), which just happens to touch past problems: drive enumeration. This particular effort is on a USB flash drive, with two

Hello, I'm check Your version of patch in syslinux-3.52-pre3. Memory (for multidisk) and 'empty line' work correctly, but VMware check (if enabled :) - not. Nasm use 'reverse' byte order in 'xxx'-constant :). With attached patch all work correctly (checked in VMware v6). Best regards, Iouri mailto:bc-info at styx.cabel.net -----...

Hello, I would like to introduce myself as the new Google Summer of Code student for this year. My name is Andr? Ericson and I'm an undergraduate student of Computer Science in Brazil. I will be, with the help of Paulo Alcantara (pcacjr) my mentor, working on implementing Multidisk Support for the Syslinux. For those that are not familiar with the time-line of GSoC, we (students) have until May, 21th to prepare ourselves to begin coding. I will be mainly using this time to read documentation and to get more familiar with the code. If any of you would like to suggest any rea...

...I know these are designed with SSDs in mind, and I know it''s possible to use anything you want as cache. So would ZFS benefit from it? Would it be the same? Would it slow down? I guess it would slow things down, because it would be trying to read/write from a single spindle instead of a multidisk array, right? I havent found any articles discussing this, only ones talking about SSD-based slogs/caches. Thanks, Hernan -- This message posted from opensolaris.org

...s do support them nowadays directly? > MEMDISK is intended to be used for operating systems which don't have a direct way to boot. This looks to me as a way for Grub2 to access the internals of an .iso image as if it was a disk. This ought to be possible to implement in some form with the multidisk option, but that's separate from MEMDISK. This should be independent from at least the Linux kernel. So I'm not sure there is a question here that relates to Syslinux, but if there is it would be great if you could restate it. There is a multifs branch in the git repo already. It probab...

...of using multiple disks/partitions possible. By the way, it's not mainstream yet. It will only be available when the patches be released or get merged into the official tree. I'm currently working on the last details, thus it isn't yet available to the public. It was previously called Multidisk. But MultiFS seems to cover better both the multiple disks and multiple partitions features. MultiFS was carefully designed to live outside the code and keep the flow of File System operations as simple as possible. It wouldn't be good to bloat the core and increase the complexity on FS operati...

Hello, Various boot parameters can be considered in alternative GRUB 2 configurations. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/ISOBoot/Examples I would like to clarify command line parameters like the following a bit more for the purpose of booting ISO images better. http://www.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php?title=MEMDISK#-_Passing_ISO_parameter_to_the_kernel 1. bootfrom 2. findiso 3.

So last week I was wondering if XFS was still working -- even with its last on-disk structure changes -- and it _suprisingly_ worked as expected. Right, now I can finally get rid of GRUB and use Syslinux to boot my Linux on EFI from a rootfs with xfs. Shit, I have two partitions (the first one being the required ESP) so there is no way to access the other partitions since because Syslinux does not
