Hi, I am trying to create a bootable linux usb drive using syslinux command as given below but I am getting error as given below syslinux4.exe -maf G: Return code : 1 Output : Error : Could not write the whole boot sector I have tried to do this with syslinux4, syslinux5, syslinux6 with the same error message. The usb drive is formatted to FAT32 drive system and has a capacity of 4GB. The OS that I am using is Windows XP SP3. What m...

Hey guys, I can't seem to figure out how to debug a COM32 app with GDB under qemu. I start "qemu -s" and then "gdb hello.elf ; target remote:1234" but can't set any breakpoints that work. I"m using syslinux4 (pathbased from the repo). Can anyone verify that they can use qemu+com32+gdb with something as simple as com32/samples/hello.c32 ? Also, is it possible to use com32/gdbstub with qemu? (How would you connect to qemu's serial port)? Thanks a lot for your time. don

Hi there, these are the cmds I'm using now, which are working with syslinux4 just fine: xorriso -as mkisofs ${_qflag} \ -iso-level 3 -rock -joliet \ -max-iso9660-filenames -omit-period \ -omit-version-number \ -relaxed-filenames -allow-lowercase \ -volid "${LABEL}" \ -appid "...

Hi, i too played with mkdiskimage in order to get more Linux examples. When i applied it to a real 2 GB stick with write speed 4 MB/s i had enough time to add some pacifier code to the big zeroizer loop. (-s does not prevent zeroizing on block device. Probably because truncate() fails.) My pacifier is combined with what Perl advised me when i tried "fsync(OUTPUT);". Of course this

...Linux. During our testings we found out, that syslinux6 won't work on older hardware. I've a new Lenovo i7 notebook which booted up our images just fine. Even with syslinux6. On my other PCs I got similar error messages as Carl got. Here is the code I'm using for either syslinux6 or syslinux4: # Prepare /isolinux make_isolinux() { if [[ ! -e ${work_dir}/build.${FUNCNAME} ]]; then echo -e -n "$_r >$_W Prepare ${install_dir}/iso/isolinux \n $_n" cp -Lr isolinux ${work_dir}/iso if [[ -e ${work_dir}/root-image/usr/lib/syslinux/bios/ ]]; then...

I just released Syslinux 4.00-pre40. This is now a Release Candidate, meaning that it is on track to be released as it currently is unless I hear back about currently unexpected problems. If you have a chance, please pretty please test it. -hpa

It occured with every BIOS system I tested on (none of them Dell): 1. HP G62 laptop (i3) 2. Samsung RV520 (i3) Don't know what system Philip Muller uses; have copied him in as he has far more technical knowledge than I do. Syslinux tested from Arch and Manjaro (an Arch derivative). Basically found then when creating latest ISO images. I may be missing something as well about the FMs. Just
