I've been trying to get syslinux.efi working in my environment again... Found what look like a bunch of little bugs that are very frustrating... First, the documentation on the Wiki says that as of 5.11, the list separator is space, not colon. But I can find no evidence that 5.11 was ever officially released or that a commit to git was made to make this change. 6.00 and following still use

Hello, I'm looking for and offering help. I know this has been an on-going problem and I thought I had seen a fix go by, but I'm compiling from the latest github.com/geneC/syslinux and syslinux.cz repositories and I've got a system which doesn't work. It does DHCP and gets a filename "efi/syslinux.efi" and downloads that correctly. It then executes it which clears the

Sounds like we should change the "and cx" mask to 5 so that if either EHDD support or LBA is announced by the bios, the correct EHDD path will be taken.

Hello, I see lots of current activity trying to get EFI PXE working both with new and "old" kernels (RHEL 6.5) and lots of failures. I've got several real pieces of hardware (AMD APU, Intel E5-2600, etc.) with a variety of BIOS and NIC that have EFI PXE stacks to test with. But I find zero documentation that's up to date on the wiki of how to configure a DHCP server to send

This document: http://www.iana.org/assignments/dhcpv6-parameters/dhcpv6-parameters.xml Has the same (plus expanded) list of cpu arch values for parameter 0x93. This list matches RFC 4578 except for values 7 and 9 which are EFI ByteCode and x86-64. Turns out RFC 4578 is wrong https://www.rfc-editor.org/errata_search.php?rfc=4578 And 00:07 *is* the correct value for 64-bit x86 clients and the

I asked before about config_cwd and after some more digging, it looks like it could be removed... Specifically, the documentation http://www.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php?title=Config#CONFIG says: ---------- * CONFIG config_file [new_WD] Load a new configuration file. The new configuration file is read, the Working Directory is optionally changed (if specified via an optional second parameter),
