...d it seems to be working. Lately I've started testing it with my real hardware and for some reason it doesn't work. I don't really know how to debug Syslinux (aside from using printf), so what I've succeeded to discover with is that the function multifs_get_fs iterates over the parts_info list and disk 0 (the disk I try to load kernel from) first partition index is (-1). I think parts_info isn't initialized it properly. So I have few questions to the mailing list: - Has someone tested the multifs feature on some real hardware? - Is there a way to debug it? I guess some de...

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

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 example: (mbr:0x12345678,2)/foo/bar would address
