Hi.. I'm Jaspreet Oberoi and i'm new to this forum.. Actually i am using Bootscriptor to make multibootable cd's and it is using your 2.04 version of syslinux and memdisk.. What my problem is that when i boot any image i.e .img file which has a Win98 command.com it works alright but when i try to boot any image with a WinME command.com it just hangs on Loading .. then Starting....

Hullo, I am attempting to use collections in order to distribute ssh keys across (soon) many hosts but I am hitting some trouble (the recipe I am using is at the end of this email). Namely it looks like sshkeys resources are not marked as exported in the sqlite db. I.e. if I do: sqlite3 clientconfigs.sqlite3 SQLite version 3.3.5 Enter ".help" for instructions sqlite> select *

Hi , I am using syslinux-2.04. I used the isolinux boot loader, to create a customized boot cd. As an add on to that process, i thought of displaying the product logo in the bootup screen. So as the document suggested i went on to create the lss from png. But it failed with following message. $ ~archives/syslinux-2.04/ppmtolss16 < ipm-white.pnm > ipm-white.lss './ppmtolss16:

I am getting a series of IOAPIC errors in xl dmesg on a Dell OptiPlex GX100 machine (bought in 2000). I also get an error from traps.c which is very similar to the one in the ''Getting mm.c errors from xl dmesg on certain hardware'' thread. This happens during system startup with no DomUs running. I have attached the xl dmesg log. _______________________________________________

Hi! using ppmtolss16 tool from syslinux-2.04 with an input .pnm file created with gimp 1.2.3, I bumbed into the following error: [root at azur syslinux-2.04]# ./ppmtolss16 < /home/sr/try.pnm > /tmp/t ./ppmtolss16: Input format error 1 [root at azur syslinux-2.04]# The problem is that gimp adds the comment # CREATOR: The GIMP's PNM Filter Version 1.0 at 2nd line. Suggested fix for

I would like to to know about conversion from jpg file to lss format. I used ppmtolss16. It is giving following errors. for .jpg file: ppmtolss16: stdin is not a raw PPM file at ppmtolss16 line 105, <STDIN> line 1. for .png files: ppmtolss16: stdin is not a raw PPM file at ppmtolss16 line 105, <STDIN> line 1. from .ppm file: ( I converted .jpg file in to .ppm file using irfanview)

Okay, what's the deal? How come ppmtolss16 always terminates with "Premature EOF"? A previous poster said he fixed it by using a different conversion routine, but that doesn't help me at all. In fact, it appears to me the problem is with perl 5.8, not the file. Characters vs. bytes? Another poster said adding "use bytes" to ppmtolss16 fixed the error. That may

Hi! I'm trying to create a custom logo for syslinux but keep bumping my head on the conversion to LSS16. The sample syslogo.png works fine so I decided to start with a known quantity by loading it into the Gimp. I cleared the canvas, color filled a blue background (0x000033) placed some yellow letters on the blue (0xffff00) and saved the file back out with the default compression. The

I apologize if this has already been covered, I did a half-hearted search of the mail archives but couldn't find anything, although I did find a couple of posts elsewhere of people having similar trouble with ppmtolss16. I'm having a few build problems on redhat 8.0, the first failure in the build is a fatal error from findpatch.pl early in the build. Bumbling through that problem there

After way too long, a new production release of Syslinux is finally available. Syslinux 4.04 is primarily a bug fix release, but with some new features. Changes in 4.04: * PXELINUX: Fix handling of unqualified DNS names. * PXELINUX: Fix timer bug when PXELINUX might be unloaded (Gene Cumm). * core/writedec.inc: Fix duplicate declaration and overflow

Commandline (under Debian): ./ppmtolss16 #FFFFFF=7 #000000=1 < missile2.ppm > splash.rle Permissions do allow execution. Script begins to execute, but seems to be reading in from the console, rather than from the file. I can enter all the whitespace I want, but after entering anything else, it complains about stdin not being a standard ppm file. So, the problem is in my command line...

I 've installed the syslinux on a opensuse10.2 system and also installed the nasm 0.98.0.39 version but how do I use the ppmtolss16 to create a custom display text to flash before the system boots.

Hi, Do you have instructions on how to create my own Graphical Splash Screen for use with SysLinux? -- Peace and Long Life, Matt

hi, one pretty small question .... i wanted to create my own mini-distribution, using syslinux to boot the system. Everything works pretty fine, but now i wanted to see a graphic on boot time. :-) I saw i have to create a graphic with the file-extension .ppm ... but please tell me with which programm i am able to use such an extension? gimp? dont think so ... hope to hear of you ... thanks in

Well, it has to happen at some point, so I have officially pushed out SYSLINUX 3.72. The big news in this release is of course the ISOLINUX hybrid mode support (a single image which can be booted either from a CD-ROM or from a hard disk/USB stick), but there are plenty of more goodies in here, including the label listing (not technically completion) on the Tab key. As usual, huge thanks to

Hi, I just replaced the pxelinux.0 of some 2.x version by pxelinux.0 vers. 3.0.7. Some of the PXE Clients refused to boot thereafter (just stopped after reading the config file). I noticed that the APPEND line was too long. Is this intentional? What is the maximum length of the APPEND option line? Thanks, Thomas

I've got an old Dell Optiplex (Pentium-II, 1998 Vintage) which is successfully running an X100P card. I'm hoping to upgrade to a TDM400. Has anybody tried running these cards in old Optiplex machines? I'm not particularly worried about horsepower - more about the motherboard having a PCI bus that's able to power up the card... -Ronan

I have released a SYSLINUX 2.06-pre3. This includes modifications to ppmtolss16 so that it should now be completely compliant with all modes of the PNM specification, raw/plain, PBM/PGM/PPM, with comment lines or without. ftp://ftp.zytor.com/pub/linux/utils/boot/syslinux/Testing/ Please test it out ASAP if at all possible. Since the fixes for -pre1 and -pre2 were pretty essential, I'd like

Hello All, I am participating in the Google Summer of Code 2008. I am a student from India. I am interested in rewriting Gfxboot as a COM32 module.I am interested in syslinux because I used the ppmtolss16 perl script present in syslinux to create my own splash screen for a kiosk system which was built on Myslax(and isolinux was present too!!!). I am a newbie and have some basic knowledge of C. I
