similar to: Memdisk lower memory usage

Hi all, I want to create a bootable DOS 6.22 image for pxelinux + memdisk. The following is my steps, anyone who knows what wrong with them? 1. Create image from a bootable floppy dd if=/dev/fd0 of=dosboot.img dd if=/dev/fd0 of=dos.bss bs=512 count=1 mount -o loop -t msdos dosboot.img /mnt/image cp dos.bss /mnt/image umount /mnt/image 2. config file in pxelinux.cfg folder

All, Quick question. What would be a good rule of thumb for the size limitations of a bootable image for MEMDISK. Not involving network dowload of the image, but relation of the image size to total RAM size. Let's say I had 1GB of RAM, is there a size my image should be limited to? Does MEMDISK have a maximum image size? Thanks. Clay Cooper PG Custom Solutions Engineering Clay_Cooper at

Running smbclient 2.2.0-alpha2 on Redhat Linux 7.0 I don't have a fully installed samba suite with full setup and really only use smbclient occasionally like an ftp client. I'm able to access a win2k and win98 box that way from my linux workstation. Able to access but not transfer anything to the win98. Although I can transfer files from/to the win2k box. I have no passwords set on

I have written a bash script (see below) to generate bootable SD-USB images using syslinux as booter. The script works OK with versions 3.63 and 3.71, but I get a null pointer error executing /tmp/$SYSLINUX/linux/syslinux -sf -o 16384 SD.img in 3.72. If you execute $ sudo sh SDformat.sh sys then you can test the image easily with qemu $ qemu -hda SD.img ++++++ SDformat.sh

Hi, I have a 4.7-RELEASE system. I used the following cvsupfile to update my system: *default host=cvsup2.FreeBSD.org *default base=/usr *default prefix=/usr *default release=cvs *default tag=RELENG_4_8 *default delete use-rel-suffix src-all *default tag=. I then proceeded to do: cd /usr/src make buildworld I got a bunch of errors which occurred when building kdump:

Hi list, Good day to you all, Please correct me if this is the right list for posting this problem I am having with CentOS, but here is the details of the problem: I have a VMware guest running under Centos 6.5/64-bit. I rarely rebooted this OS, and was using it as my backend for some of my applications, like the A.R.T.(BI tool) and a PostgreSQL server. "But I was not unable to start

On some machines, the location at 0x40e does not point to the beginning of the EBDA. Rather, it points to the beginning of the BIOS-reserved area of the EBDA, while the option ROMs place their data below that segment. For this reason, 0x413 is actually a better source than 0x40e to get the location of the real-mode trampoline. But it is even better to fetch the information from the multiboot

Hi, I'm having a problem using winetricks... I've made a clean install of Daryna KDE (ubuntu gutsy based) and have the latest wine installed from the winehq repos...

Hi! We are pleased to announce the availability of Dirmngr version 1.0.3. Dirmngr is a server for managing and downloading certificate revocation lists (CRLs) for X.509 certificates and for downloading the certificates themselves.

Hi, I''m trying to boot xen dom0 on a Compaq Proliant 2500 but so far I have been unsuccessful, I get (XEN) Not enough memory to stash the DOM0 kernel image. On a normal linux 2.6 kernel to boot I have pass "memmap=exactmap memmap=640K@0 memmap=319M@1M" to the kernel at boot otherwise it hangs because of the way Compaq Bios reports the system memory. I''ve tryed to use

(FreeDOS developers, I apologize for the redundant parts of this message. But I want to bring the SYSLINUX folks into the discussion, and the SourceForge mailing list archives are broken.) Background: I have a little Sourceforge project (http://unattended.sourceforge.net/) for which I use SYSLINUX to provide CD-ROM and PXE boot support for my boot disk. And it works great with MS-DOS. However,

Folks -- I''m trying to run FreeBSD 6.0 on a VT-x based Xen system. I''m experiencing a problem where the boot loader is crashing before the FreeBSD kernel (proper) is loaded. The sequence of operations is that the VMX domain is constructed, the BIOS is executed, GRUB loads, I type the instructions to load FreeBSD (a boot loader) and that code begins to execute and then

I'm experiencing similar problems with a 3C996-T under 4.8-REL. In particular, connecting a 4.8-REL machine to a 5.1-REL machine leads to some interesting situations: I can do simple pings across the link, but ssh fails, and heavy pings crash the 4.8 machine. Similarly changing the interface configuration with ifconfig tends to crash the 4.8 machine (mtu, link0, up/down, etc). The

Recent SUP. Installed on Dell PowerEdge 4600. Getting tons of: Sep 30 12:23:16 zige /kernel: bge0: gigabit link up Sep 30 12:23:46 zige last message repeated 98 times Also getting some TCP retransmits. This causes noticable delays in pretty much everything I do now. Not a problem prior to the SUP. I was on 4.8-STABLE before. When pulling/replacing cables, it went into a mode where it would

Hi, I have a big "name problem" with my internal mail server (10.0.0.152). It is "seen" on the internet through DNAT (213.58.230.27). Also there is a MX record pointing to the machine. Everything works fine from the outside. However i can''t set the mail clients on the lan pointing to the mx record, because this one points to 213.58.230.27 and the firewall

I have a machine with 64GB of memory in our lab. We have memory demanding processes and natually swap gets used. However when these processes are gone and the system is idle, we still see swap being used. Is this normal behavior? TIA

Hello, I have this problem: when my mail server on the DMZ starts a connection to the internet it''s ip (213.58.230.26) is "masqueraded" with the firewall ip (213.58.230.50). I wouldn''t mind but there is a one customer who rejects the connection because it makes reverse dns and finds no dns entry for the firewall ip. How can i correct this? Thanks, MSantos shorewall
