-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I am trying to build a live fs on a CD that is selfbooting that later installs a pre-configured linux (this is acctually an upgrade, I have already done it before with 1.67). Anyway, I can't get it to work this time. All I see is - -----8<------ Cannot load disk image (invalid file)? - -----8<------ My isolinux/isolinux.cfg file: -

Hi: I am having problems with isolinux.cfg I am receiving several error messages. 'Missing parameter in config file' and 'Unknown keyword in config file'.

I used google but did not come up with anything current to solve my problem. I have not tried any other search engines yet. There is not a search for the CentOS list so I am creating a new post. I have tested the CentOS 5.2 and RHEL 5.3 CD's and they passed. I had to use linux mediacheck ide=nodma to get them to pass. The newest releases seem to most times fail with just linux mediacheck. I

We modified our copy of syslinux. We're now sharing those modifications. That's so that: 1. We fulfill our requirements under the GPL 2. Our modifications might be picked up and included in the base code. That way we wouldn't have to make the same modifications, again, later. Since we're using CentOS 5.3, and CentOS 5.3 derives from RHEL 5.3, and RHEL 5.3 uses

Hey all, I'am able to use pxelinux to successfully boot a particular kernel and image on various IBM PC's ex. 6287-41U and 6591-34U. However, using the same setup (ie. dhcp, tftp, pxelinux.0, pxelinux.cfg, networkcard, bootrom, ram memory) on an IBM 6282-73U my kernel and image decompress fine but I'am getting a...

hi, sorry for bothering the list but since I didn't find anything in the documentation or archives I would be grateful for your help. For a customized USB installer (based on redhat anaconda) I wanted to pass an kernel parameter which contains a colon. This leads twice to the error message "Unknown keyword in syslinux.cfg." Quoting the append string using ' or "

I have tried to use isolinux 2.05, and I am running into a problem where it will not boot. I have previously used version 1.66, and the older version works just fine. Changing nothing except dropping the new version in does not work. Below is all of the relevant info, I believe. This occurs on multiple machines with different BIOS. I am currently in process of doing a binary search to find the

Having fought my PXE config and eventually getting it to work (had to comment out the group { } statments ? I now come across another issue I cannot resolve and would appreciate some help. in my /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default file I have cause to use the APPEND statement to pass options to the kernel being used. Unfortunately this line has now become longer than 255 characters and appears to be

The following is a pxelinux problem, specifically to do with including config files with the menu include directive and the ifcpu64.c32 com module. I have a working ifcpu64.c32 setup that jumps to the label rescue64 in the case of a 64-bit CPU. The label "rescue64" defines a 64-bit kernel and a 64-bit initrd.img. The setup jumps to a label named "rescue32" in the case of a

Hello friends, I'm having a problem with my home server (ASUS A7V133 motherboard) which has a horrible performance with ATA disks connected to an integrated promise controller. Below you can see iozone results of the same disk connected to the primary/ secondary controller versus the promise one.

Apologies if this ends up a dup, but there seems to have been a problem with my original subscription. ------------------------------ Hello, I am currently using Fedora on most of my servers. It does pretty well. I do have occasional problems which seem to me to stem from poor QA. For example, /usr/bin/enable <queue> coming back with "Enable: I don't know what to do!"

I tried installing with several options (noacpi noapm; noprobe; noprobe skipddc noacpi noapm nodma). Always I get the same error. BUT this is not in fac a CentOS problem at all, because I get the same error always when I boot from hd (Fedora Core), IF there is a CD in the CD-ROM drive. (I tried with CentOS 1/4, CentOS 2/4 and a HP printer software CD.) It must be something with the CD drive!

Hi. I'm trying to put together a boot cd using isolinux, but I've run into a problem. The system I'm trying to boot with this cd complains that it "Could not find kernel image: linux". This is the isolinux.cfg file that I'm using default linux prompt 1 timeout 600 label linux kernel vmlinuz-2.2.14 append initrd=rootfs_new.img lang=

Hi all, I'm looking for some menu examples for Murali's menu system. Specifically, a headstart on creating a Kickstart menu which covers the most common options with the intention of creating this: label ks.menu kernel vmlinuz.ks.$DIST append ksdevice=eth0 ks=http://kickstartserver/$DIST/Custom/ks.cfg.$DIST initrd=initrd.ks.$DIST lang= devfs=nomount ramdisk_size=8192 Hmm...looking

Hi All, Interesting that I couldn't find this documented anywhere, but what happens to text that is typed after the label on the syslinux prompt? My current issue is I'm using PXE to do kickstart installations. I want the ability to do "rescue" boots also with PXE. I've gone looking at the current RH80 disk 1 which has this capability. It has a directory called

I had a little trouble installing WINE and, becuase of that, tried several different versions. It turned out the sound trouble was not a WINE issue, but a devfs issue, so I deactivated devfs (devfs=nomount). I am using the latest RPM of Codeweaver's WINE with Mandrake 8.1. I've got Codeweaver's WINE up and running now. When I first tried this, I could type a win .exe file from

Actually your Syslinux config is less relevant than the kernel config file. Indeed Syslinux infers the method to use from the kernel image itself. I assume the .config is public. I will take a look as soon as I can Thomas Le 04/08/2015 14:09, intrigeri via Syslinux a ?crit : > Thomas Letan via Syslinux wrote (04 Aug 2015 09:27:38 GMT) : >> Are you using EFI Handover Protocol? >
