...ought I'd give a quick shout out across the mailing list that it looks like Extlinux support got merged into Fedora's mkinitrd, which I believe is in time for Fedora 11. This apparently isn't my full patch series (which if anyone cares can be found at: http://git.kernel.org/?p=boot/warthog9/mkinitrd-syslinux.git;a=summary ) since it's missing the Extlinux menu stuff, but this is a good start none the less. If anyone is interested the mkinitrd git tree can be found at http://git.fedoraproject.org/git/?p=mkinitrd;a=summary - John 'Warthog9' Hawley

...ash. SPF / DNS keys / DMARC are more problem than fix at this point, and I'd actually recommend not enabling any of them. The best answer is to stop using a mail provider (yahoo, aol, etc) that has such spectacularly bad DMARC rules if you are going to do things on mailing lists. - John 'Warthog9' Hawley

This isn't an esp urgent issue, but I'd like to use a certain RAM diagnostic (Doc Mem) which I've already posted a note about a couple of months ago. Simply won't work booting the floppy disk image via MEMDISK. In the interim, I've tried to resolve this by changing things on my side. I'm pretty sure it's a XMS incompatibility, as it fails differently depending on

Knoppix and the ones based on the Linux-Live scripts are ones that I'm most familiar with. OTOH, mounting an ISO from linuxrc isn't as tough as writing an ISO-compatible memdisk.

being a complete novice with syslinux, I was hoping someone here could help me out. I have a USB Key that I have "broken" into two areas. General storage in the "back" and space for several live distributions on the front. What I need to do now is figure out how to make a syslinux.cfg file that would let me pick which one to boot at startup time. Basically, I want a menu

Newbie question here. I am doing some work with Bering uClibC and have been wondering about the meaning of the various parameters in the syslinux.cfg file. I have already read the FAQ (http://syslinux.zytor.com/faq.php) which leaves me wondering where to find more information on the 'default' and 'append' parameters. For example, what are all of the kernel and other arguments that

A very special thanks to H. Peter for finding the time to [at least partially, if not wholly] scrutinize and merge the El Torito emulation code for MEMDISK! I'd like to ask that those who've previously used the stale MEMDISK-ISO switch to this latest[1] MEMDISK proper and report any failures. Gert, I believe this version addresses the PloP .ISO trouble you reported. Could you

I was trying out the INCLUDE command within menu.c32 (via pxelinux, actually gpxelinux) and noticed that it's broken. The symptom is that the text is included, as expected, but the subsequent text from the including file is wrong. In some cases it actually pulls from above the INCLUDE leading to the INCLUDE being reprocessed (an infinite recursion). (The recursion seems to stop after 20-30

Unless someone already has a snazzy isolinux image that lets you select multiple makes and models to update bios's that's willing to share. I was curious if someone could tell me how to go from my isolinux.cfg into sub menu categories so instead of having one great big menu with multiple makes models and bios revisions, I can drill down into menu's until i get to the bios revisions to
