similar to: Problem with rbfg and pxelinux

Hi, I just tried to boot my token ring devices with 2.05 - to no avail, it hangs after loading the kernel. I then tried older versions, and found 2.03 booting like a charm, and every 2.04-pre including 2.04 hanging. Here's the config of the devices: - Networkstation 2800 with IBM PCI Token Ring card 2 - IBM Thinkpad T21 with IBM PCI Token Ring card 2 Maybe this has to do with the changes

It seems that 2.03-pre1 resolves PXELINUX problem on a reasonable number of hosts. Perhaps somewhat importantly this seems to include the RBFG PXE boot floppy, which did not work with 2.02. This was somewhat of a surprise, since it didn't exhibit the failure mode that I would have thought would have been the trigger of the bug. Instead, it was one of those stacks that would transmit packets

HI there. Probably my message is a bit off topic but I do not know where else I could be asking. . I'm running a linux terminal server with one client provided with a 3C509B ISA card. I boot the later with a floppy bootable rom image taken from http://www.rom-o-matic.net/ Everything is working just fine. I decided to try to set up a PXE network boot (I'll needed it for installing a

Hello all, I want to create a program that runs from a pxe-loaded virtual floppy (using memdisk + keeppxe) to call again PXE boot. I took a piece of code form NILO to look for PXE data structures and the call to function PXENV_START_BASE from PXE spec as follows: lower = (unsigned char *)LOWER_PXE_MEM; upper = (unsigned char *)UPPER_PXE_MEM; for (i=upper; i>lower;i--) { if

Hi, I have been using pxelinux for quite a while. It works extremely well for us. Now, I am looking at something new. We would like to: boot ( some OS - hopefully linux )from the network using pxelinux. make a small partition dos partition on the first disk. connect ( via perl dbi ) to a back end database Download the appropriate files for either a winxp build OR a kernel/ramdisk for a

Hello, We are having problems booting disk images and are looking for a little help. Here is the screen capture of what we see: http://www.kmaclub.com/syslinux/largefloppy.png We have also tried using images from http://severinterrier.free.fr/Boot/ImgBoot/ with a similar result. Basically, memdisk loads the images and then it hangs. label linux kernel memdisk append

Hi I just joined this list so sorry i don't just reply folowing mails. I experienced the same problem where the boot just stop after reaching Ready. I am using my own tftp server written in Java which previously has succeeded a pxe boot. While searching for the "Ready" problem I found that the tftpserver returned the wrong blksize. Instead off returning the size off the data it

Hi, The link given in your http://syslinux.zytor.com/pxe.php#config page points to the http://www.argontechnology.ca/rbfg/index.shtml site. This site talks only of Win2k and .Net server. There is no mention of GNU/Linux. Is it possible to use rbfg.exe to create a pxelinux bootable stack on a floppy. If so how ? Rom-O-Matic has a pxe loadable ROM image. Is there a way to use this to

Hi.. Well i've tried each and every method to insert any winme command.com into any bootable image and its really giving me problems.... I even further tested the same image with reinserting the 98 command.com and the image worked just fine.. So acc to me the problem has to lie in me command.com as there is no real mode dos in ME.. Also try using umbpci.sys and lowdma.sys for managing

In pxelinux.asm the xchg instruction in xchg ax,ax . data_on_top: should be xchg ax,dx, I think At the end of pxe_get_cached_info routine,there is and ax,ax jnz .err It is supposed to test for AX status, but since pxenv does pushad and popad, AX doesn't contain status. In fact the other routines calling pxenv don't have this bug.

Hi All, I have encountered a problem when reading PXELinux's source code. In syslinux/core/pxelinux.asm, function *pxenv* is as below: pxenv: pushfd pushad ; We may be removing ourselves from memory cmp bx,PXENV_RESTART_TFTP ...... push es push di push bx .jump: call 0:0 add sp,6 mov [cs:PXEStatus],ax ...... ret "Around" .jump, we store ES:DI and BX on PXE

Hi, I am using pxelinux 3.06 to do PXE boot on network. I am using AMI BIOS. My DHCP and TFTP server works fine and pxelinux.0 gets loaded and gets control. But after int 1Ah, it gets out of the execution saying "No !PXE or PXENV+ API found; we're dead..." After digging the pxelinux code I found that it quits because of "jc no_pxe" which is

I have been using pxelinux for quite a while to automagically build linux boxes with great success. Thanks to everyone involved! Now, I am trying to download a floppy image and get that to boot. My conf file looks like: default sir4 label sir4 kernel ia32/memdisk append initrd=ia32/sir4/floppy.img Everything starts off fine. pxelinux loads I see it get the conf file. gets memdisk

Whoops, apologies. The intent was to send this email to ipxe-devel. I'll repost to that list.

Hi all, I currently use iPXE to load memdisk and, subsequently, a FreeBSD disk image to perform an OS installation to disk. This works great in BIOS, but upcoming requirements make UEFI a prerequisite. Because memdisk is not UEFI-aware, new UEFI-aware media is necessary. The current plan is to integrate the installation scripts (currently in the hard drive image) into a bootable FreeBSD ISO

I am absolutely thrilled and delighted to report that the problem I have been having on CentOS since I first started using it, back in 4.4, of having all images (graphics) print out from the image viewer as all-black pages appears to be gone! I just printed 13 graphics from the image viewer directly to my laser printer, and they're all excellent. I suppose it could be that I'm using a

Hi guys, I have been fighting with Syslinux and PXElinux for two days now. I have gotten the floppy to boot but can't get pxelinux to work. I get a message: No !PXE or PXENV+ API fournd; we're dead I am guessing this means I need something else on the floppy? The floppy has: # ls /floppy/ total 24K -r-xr-xr-x 1 9.4K Nov 2 16:31 ldlinux.sys -rwxr-xr-x 1 14K Nov 2 16:50
