I have a USB flash drive that I'd like to image, and then load that image via pxelinux and memdisk. The flash drive was formatted under Windows 98 SE as FAT, and boots just fine on its own. The PXE boot process gets as far as loading the image via memdisk, but then when the boot process switches over to the RAM disk, it fails: [...PXE diagnostic information...] Loading boot

Hello, are there known issues with some bioses not booting from Superfloppy format? All I get is the Syslinux (c) line and nothing else happens afterwords. Everything works fine if a partition is added to the device. Unfortunately however the target device can not be partitioned. Any hint? Sven -- Why are there so many Unix-haters-handbooks and not even one Microsoft-Windows-haters

Some additional fields from the EDD-4 spec. draft for the Device Parameter Table have been added into the structure in setup.c and memdisk.inc. These were added in the hopes of resolving a FreeDOS MEMDISK bug on IBM ThinkPads. --- memdisk/memdisk.inc | 11 +++++++++++ memdisk/setup.c | 10 ++++++++++ 2 files changed, 21 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-) diff --git a/memdisk/memdisk.inc

A kind request for help please. MEMDISK is causing an issue with the Dell OptiPlex GX280 and GX620 platforms. Booting a PC-DOS/Ghost, disk image is successful (and proper) when using version 3.83.
