This version contains a fix to mbr.asm, plus a version of Murali's menu system, but ported to gcc. Although gcc produces much bigger 16-bit code (since it's really 32-bit code with prefixes) I figured it would be much easier for people to deal with since it requires the configuration to be compiled in. That being said, it's a *very* powerful menu system, partially *because*

Sometimes useful information scrolls off the screen before it can be read. I wrote a simple program that can be called from syslinux that offers will change video modes. Unfortunately, syslinux does not recognize the mode change. Is it possible to get syslinux to see the change and use it?

I mentioned in a private email recently that it would be useful if syslinux had a malloc implementation. I have one now if anyone's interested. -- Hebe 2004-02-08 14:26:08.183 UTC (JD 2453044.101484) X = -1.159504592, Y = 2.015990327, Z = 0.638260245 X' = -0.010415779, Y' = -0.003652077, Z' = 0.001024628

With not too much effort I've made Doug Lea's malloc work in the com32 environment. I've also hacked up some start up code to create the argv array so it's possible to start with main. Should I post it here or what? -- Jupiter 2004-02-20 21:17:51.911 UTC (JD 2453056.387406) X = -5.172371620, Y = 1.409543883, Z = 0.730102025 X' = -0.002302696, Y' =

The menu directory won't compile with gcc 3.4.0 because gcc complains that "ebp" cannot be used as a constraint. If preserving ebp is necessary then it will have to be done in the assembler code. Gcc 3.3.3 just seems to ignore the constraint. It didn't do anything special to preserve the register. I also noticed that getnumrows returns the contents of 0x484 which is the

Memdisk still won't build because gcc doesn't always inline functions.
