...liment a pxe bartpe solution in our office. Unfortunatly tftp is not passing the files correctly to the client. Here's the rundown. Server client connects to server host, get pxe/dhcp/tftp. Get standard m32 menu and client selects windows pe options. The next step is where the client will call NTLDR from the tftp server, this works fine and the client begins to load NTLDR. However NTLDR calls a file called ntdetect.com from the server. The server ACK's the call and then ends up failing. Here's the error thought packet captures: Read Request, File: ntdetect.com, Transfer type: octet,...

Hello All, I am using NU2's BCD with the isolunix/memdisk add-on to create the cd. Floppy images work fine, however the bootsector (w2K et.al) doesn't. I get an NTLDR not found error. Not a problem, as the issue is that the bootsector needs to be in the root of the CD. Well if I do that then how do I spec that location properly in isolinux.cfg for the label tag? For example- this works for the floppy images / . ..../isolinux | floppya....

Is there a practical reason that the NTLDR clause of the CHAIN module isn't operable under ISOLINUX ? The reason for my question is that I like the SYSLINUX suite over the alternatives, that is GRUB and BCDW, however these pkgs all can chainload (just about anything) from an ISO. That is, they can handle .BSS files and the various...

Hi, I'm wondering if there is any way to boot syslinuxed partition from NTLDR. I made a boot sector image of the syslinuxed partition, copied it to a Windows root directory and then modified boot.ini of the Windows, but didn't work. Any idea? Masasmi

Hello all. Here[1] is a branch where chain.c32 can chain-boot a partition on a GPT disk when given the partition index. boot: chain hd1 84 (For example.) - Shao Miller [1] http://git.zytor.com/?p=users/sha0/syslinux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/ chain_gpt

When booting windows I currently have to use an extracted boot sector to chain-load the OS, is there any merit to creating a method to execute NTLDR directly using a /reverse engineered/ version of the boot sector?

The only HDD, NTFS, WindowsXP native boot loader ntldr. Let me rephrase my question. It was/is clear that you used to be able to boot Windows when the first boot device was the HDD. Then you used the USB as first boot device. My question is, whether now (after you have been "playing" with this USB device) you can still repeat the forme...

...n of my hard disk. I've installed SYSLINUX to that drive. I've another primary partition which I installed Windows XP to it (and this partition is NTFS). I want to have a boot menu, so I used chain.c32 and menu.c32 My syslinux.conf file is as below: LABEL WinXP COM32 chain.c32 APPEND hd0 2 ntldr=ntldr But this does not work, failing with "Failed to load the boot file" error. What is wrong?

...this is OK. But in case with two Windows systems, when I installed second system, the installer added multi boot loader(I think it's called bootmgr), and then I can't choose the proper OS via syslinux config because chainloading(append hd0 1, append hd0 2) is not working (I get the "ntldr is missing" error). When I try boot from mbr (hd0 0), multi boot loader shows up, and then I can choose OS manually, but I really don't know how to choose it automatically(via pxelinux config file). I appreciate your help, -nevee
