similar to: ipappend in pxelinux

I'm feeling really stupid here.... I seem to be missing something about the syslinux config file. I'm booting a workstation via pxelinux. Everything is cool, life is great, but I seem to be missing something about the config file. I have: display menu.dpy timeout 35000 default netboot label netboot kernel vmlinuz.nfs append root=/dev/nfs nfsroot=10.1.1.4:/home/image/1

core and the simple menu do not interpret the IPAPPEND/SYSAPPEND directives in the same way. Which is the proper way? Either way, this should be clarified in the documentation. com32/elflink/ldlinux/readconfig.c: } else if ((ep = looking_at(p, "ipappend")) || (ep = looking_at(p, "sysappend"))) { uint32_t s = strtoul(skipspace(ep), NULL,

The following changes since commit 4ff8fcac8e7b5046987dee15592ab510ab343aa8: Matt Fleming (1): Merge branch 'menu-ipappend-1-for-mfleming' of git://github.com/geneC/syslinux into elflink are available in the git repository at: git://github.com/geneC/syslinux.git ipappend-fix-for-mfleming Gene Cumm (2): core & menu: fix IPAPPEND/SYSAPPEND conversion doc/ &

does the IPAPPEND option still exist? If so I want clearification on it please. Out of the syslinux documentation it says the following. The flag_val is an OR of the following options: 1: indicates that an option of the following format should be generated and added to the kernel command line: ip=client-ip:boot-server-ip:gw-ip:netmask ... based on the input from the DHCP/BOOTP or PXE boot

Just spent a few hours going mad(der) wondering why my menu config wasn't working. It looks like the change in 3.74 ("Add IPAPPEND to com32 modules, especially needed for linux.c32") breaks menu.c32 (and possibly other modules) since they aren't expecting it. In particular menu.c32 uses that as an optional menu file, it then complains "Initial menu has no LABEL

Hello everyone, I have a problem regarding gre tunneling, I have two linux box both of them has a private network and the linux A is connected to the internet via wireless radio and the other linux B is connected to the internet via lease line. Here is the setup of my two linux box Linux A eth0 = 203.189.x.1 (internet) eth1 = 192.168.1.1 (going to hub private network) Linux B eth0 = 205.198.x.1

Another issue which looks like a bug. If 'ipappend' is set globally (not uncommon in network/pxelinux environment), the last entry for ifcpu64.c32 gets messed up -- to the 2nd (or 3rd) label all the chars from ipappend gets appended, without spaces, resulting in a messy label. Adding -- after the 3rd entry does not help -- the minuses too gets addedd to the command line. For now I

I have been using PXELINUX with the "ipappend 2" option for a long time. To make things a little more user friendly, I decided to set up menus (text menus with menu.c32), but they wouldn't work (blank screen and corrupted menu flashes by when you hit a key). I went through all kinds of combinations of options, and finally found that commenting out the "ipappend 2" line

Hello Using pxelinux for so long time i don't want to use pxegrub to PXE boot solaris 10 on x86 . So i would like to use pxelinux to do this jobs .

Hello, I have not been able to get the IPAPPEND option to successfully set the ip parameters for a pxelinux install. I have LABEL install KERNEL pxelinux.cfg/tftpboot.img APPEND initrd=pxelinux.cfg/initrdfs.gz root=/dev/ram IPAPPEND 1 where tftpboot.img is either of http://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/woody/main/disks-i386/current/ idepci/tftpboot.img

I'm using ipappend and getargs.com with a dos boot image to get the environment variables for the IP and MAC. The format of the %ip% environment variable is ip=<client-ip>:<boot-server-ip>:<gw-ip>:<netmask> Is there a way to tell ipappend to assign these to individual arguments. Or does anyone know a good way to parse each of these to individual variables in dos. What

Is there a way to use IPAPPEND 1 on the pxelinux command line. I want to be able to pass the whole command line in my menu files and not use the config file. Thanks Aaron
