Hello, I have specialized linux installation which uses ISOLinux bootloader. Recently isolinux version has changed from 4.05 to 5.10. From that time there is a problem with VirtualBox VM, It crashes (guru meditation) on attempt to boot from HDD or hangs on installation from CD. Strange part is, the very same ISO on ESXi VM works like a charm. Also burned on CD and started on "real"

Hi, I tried to build a multiboot DVD and decided to integrate the SuSE Linux LiveDVD. For several reasons the easiest way (as far as I can see) to do this is to boot the isolinux of the SuSE DVD with the "main" isolinux on my multiboot DVD. I do not want to use SuSE's modified version as default boot loader for some reasons! I decided to do it as follows (correct me, if

Hi, some time ago I asked if it is possible to boot one isolinux from another one. The reason: I tried to integrate a SuSE Live DVD on a multiboot DVD, but SuSE uses a modified version of isolinux. I tried the following: 1. I copied the isolinux stuff from the SuSE DVD to /boot/suselive. 2. I edited isolinux.bin and substituted "/boot/isolinux" by "/boot/ suselinux" 3. I

In fact, I discovered that the bug is caused when there is no primary hard disk image (no hard disk 0). When an HD image is created and attached, ISOLINUX works well: ISOLINUX 1.75 2002-06-14 Copyright (C) 1994-2002 H.

While attempting to work on implementing readdir in ISOLINUX, I made it large enough that it overflowed for isolinux-debug. $ make all nasm -O9999 -f elf -g -F stabs -DDATE_STR="'pre11-112-g930881b*'" \ -DHEXDATE="0x49caaf5b" \ -l isolinux.lsr -o isolinux.o isolinux.asm ld -m elf_i386 -T syslinux.ld -M -o isolinux.elf isolinux.o >

Hi All, I've got a simple isolinux cd loading a floppy image via memdisk, that boots reliably on 14 of 15 platforms, but intermittently hangs on one and, unfortunately, I can't substitute the platform. The behavior is weird. If I cold boot the system with the CD already in the drive, it *usually* boots to completion. Warm boots are hit-or-miss. If there's any drive door action

Hi, I tried to install redhat 8.0 on a laptop and ran into the following problem. ISOLINUX 1.75 2002-06-14 isolinux failed to get sector size, assuming 0800 isolinux: Image checksum error, sorry... At that point, I followed the advice on the isolinux webpage, and reburned a CD using isolinux 2.00 with debug. The error message was: ISOLINUX 2.00 2002-10-25 Copyright (C) 1994-2002 H. Peter

Hi, I'm trying to create a bootable CD, and so far I have had limited success. On the first CD I created, isolinux worked, but I think I had a kernel without the necessary initrd support compiled in, so the boot failed. Now I can't even re-create that success. At the moment the CD's I'm burning (3 so far) do not even show the display file. I used isolinux-debug.bin for the

I'm trying to make a boot disk with reiser4progs on it. I can't seem to find any documentation on the boot.cat file. Is this something I create or does it get generated? The documentation at http://syslinux.zytor.com/iso.php says: << To create an image, create a directory called "isolinux" (or, if you prefer, "boot/isolinux") underneath the root directory of

I'm new to the ISOLINUX development cycle, and I've tried a few times to come up with a solution. I'm trying to recompile isolinux.bin to look for the config files in a directory other than root, /boot/isolinux, or /isolinux. Ideally, this directory would be /lpc/isolinux. I've tried changing the plain text values in isolinux.asm to reflect these changes and recompiling using

Greetings, I have been using isolinux with Microsoft's cdimage.exe for my Utility / Preinstallation cds. I just upgraded from 3.36 to 3.55 and found it to be non functional. I didn't use the -debug version, it just hangs at the version banner. I went through several previous versions, and it appears that 3.50-pre23 is the last working version. I didn't see anything between that

Hi Peter, I tried isolinux-1.73, its great! Because of some problems making a universal boot-CD I tried to use bocs-1.4 (a PC emulator, very good). This emulator is able to boot a win98-installation-CD but fails on self made isolinux-1.73-CDs. I can coot the isolinux-CD by a real PC without problems. Also a SuSE-Linux CD or an image of it which claims to use solinux-1.62 is bootable in bochs, but

Folks I've just tried booting the 1st Linux CD I've made using Isolinux and it fails. At boot time I see: Boot from ATAPI CD-ROM: No Emulation ISOLINUX 1.67 2002-02-03 Copyright (C) 1994-2001 H.

I've created a bootable cd with isolinux but it can't load the kernel. It detects everything fine, decompresses the initrd, loads and decompresses the kernel and then tries to boot the kernel. But after that the computer hangs. Here's the screen dump: ISOLINUX 1.73 2002-05-26 Copyright (C) 1994-2002 H. Peter Anvin isolinux: Starting up, DL = 9F isolinux: Loaded spec packet OK,

I found that the version of isolinux.bin (and the debug version too) doesn't work on my Via C3 system. I get the SAY text, but never the boot: prompt. C-A-Del doesn't reboot either. The debug version does not print anything after announcing it's opening the config file. Only the single SAY text follows. The cursor sits on the next blank line, useless (no responses to key presses).
