There is a question in the http://reboot.pro Syslinux forum regarding limiting the amount of memory, and it seems that a "mem=..." option works with both LILO and GRUB, so I w...

...user-notes for syslinux, it says that this can be ignored and that it is likely to work anyway. I have now tried on 3 different systems without luck(Win2k/sp2). Has anybody made a version of syslinux.com that works on win2k on flashdisks ?? 2. Is it possible to setup syslinux.cfg for some kind of safeboot, so for instance you could have 2 labels for kernel and if the system don't properly from the first, then boot from the other on next boot ?? This could be made with some kind of a flag in memory and a small utility to be called from linux to clear this flag, if boot succeded. We see this as a...

Hi Peter, I just noticed your check-in of the api headers. Are you planning on making the fat library also into an API? This would make things easier for me for my safeboot module (redundant bootloader which i mailed you about last week). I aleady moved some of the chainboot's partition finding logic into outside files, so I can add that to the API as well. thanks, Ram

Oh, Boy. I am in trouble now.... I just installed Centos on a USB drive on my corp notebook. To not TOUCH my corp drive. I spent time with the drive partitioner to make sure that nothing was done to the internal hard drive... Well I missed something and I overwrote the encrypted bootloader on the hard drive. Now what? Can I rescue things? I am leaving for my flight in a couple hours to

I am still dead on my corporate system, and the XP boot CD I brought won't boot. And so far I have not found anyone here at the IETF meeting that happens to have one in their bag of tricks... So I found instructions on doing this in Ubuntu: http://www.arsgeek.com/2008/01/15/how-to-fix-your-windows-mbr-with-an-ubuntu-livecd/ I have my Centos install CD 1 of 6 that gets me into rescue.

Hi, I''m trying to migrate a VirtualBox virtual machine to Xen, but I haven''t been able to successfully boot it under xen (3.0.1 that comes with CentOS 5.5). Thinking that the problem was converting the disk format to a raw format, I tried converting the VDI disk with all these options: VBoxManage internalcommands converttoraw disk.vdi disk.raw VBoxManage clonehd disk.vdi
