similar to: syslinux-2.05 boot floppy failures, size related?

Hi, number three, where I first thought it was a GCC bug but is apparently bad code in klibc. Submitted with permission: http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=47533#c6 Patch attached again (sorry) not just because that is easier with my mail system but also to keep original author intact. bye, //mirabilos -- > emacs als auch vi zum Kotzen finde (joe rules) und pine f?r den einzig >

Hi, I stumbled on a rather odd problem. A brand new HP Compaq dx2200 computer didn't want to boot up pxelinux+memdisk image. The computer just gave "Disk I/O error" and stopped there. Workaround was rather simple... Just attach regular floppy drive to the motherboard and everything started working fine. I tried with older 2.05 (pxelinux+memdisk) and newer 3.31. Both produced

Hello! Below is an excerpt from the thread in October. I have the same problem, but my laptop (which is a Brand new HP Compaq NC6230) does not have options in the BIOS to enable or disable floppy support. It just doesn't have one. I assume it leaves it enabled for USB Floppy support, but does not come with the drive. My ISOLinux setup is a UBCD. I tried to make my own, but the lack of

Greetings, I have released SYSLINUX 2.05. It is almost identical to 2.05-pre4. I'm about to leave for a trip, so if there are any issues please let me know, but don't expect a response any time soon. -hpa 2.05 is mostly a bug fix/maintenance release. Changes in 2.05: * PXELINUX: Add a default query based on the hardware address of the boot device. This is in lower

I love syslinux, and loath to cry bug, but I think this might qualify. I found that using the chain loader in syslinux version 2.05 on a FreeDOS (ver. 2.30.1) boot floppy failed (locked after 'FreeDOS' is written to the screen). I tried other boot disks (dos 3.30, up to win98) with similar results. The good news is that version 1.40 (where it was originally implemented) works great !!

Hi... I'm Jaspreet. I've been having the memdisk memory overlapping problems since 2.04 Its always seen in the compressed images whereas the uncompressed images works just fine !!! It just stops at the error "Ran out of input data".. Even the memdisk 2.05 dint solve my problem !!! maybe there r still some bugs remaining. !! My motherboard is Intel 845GEBV2 and i've got

I installed syslinux-2.05-pre1 this morning and modified my server program to set up pxelinux.cfg files with the MAC address in the file name. I have run several tests with multiple clients and I haven't found a problem. Thanks very much for answering my "wibni" before I even got around to asking out loud. Derek Tattersall EFI Test

Hi all, This prerelase should hopefully fix the "non-IP-numbered config file causes crash" problem, as well as (I hope to God) clean up the Perl binary issues. ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/boot/syslinux/Testing/ Please test it out. -hpa

Okay, I have finally become convinced that hardware address based config files should be a standard feature in PXELINUX, so I have added it. I am a bit worried that it might not work with all DHCP servers (since I'm trying to do this in a hardware-independent manner), so I'd appreciate feedback. This adds one more name to the list of names queried for the config file, before the IP-based

Hello, I had samba working fine with RH6.0 but now I cannot get it to work... I cannot even see the SAMBA machine in my network neighbor hood. TCP/IP connectivity is fine... Has something changed in this version?? Why does the smb.conf now have 'server string' instead of 'netbios name'??? I have attached smb.conf and smb thanks Ken -------------- next part --------------

I found that if I do not have a local floppy installed and enabled on my client, I will get the error 'Non-system disk' when I try to boot DOS floppy images. NT or Syslinux floppy images boot fine. If I enable the floppy in the BIOS, then it boots the DOS floppies just fine. Is this normal? Is there a workaround? There are MS-DOS images, so perhaps this is an MS-DOS limitation. --

syslinux 3.11 (from debian's 3.11-3 package) does it job. The machine boots as expected with an 1.44 floppy. Yet the floppy driver's led doesn't turn off. 1) Is this a syslinux issue? 2) Can I safely remove the boot floppy (media) without dameging it? From memory: $ cat syslinux.cfg say linux 2.6.14 (probably with debian modifications) default linux append root=/dev/nfs

Hi all, the commands "btrfs filesystem show" and "btrfs device scan" look at the /dev directory (and it subdirectories) for every block devices. This is a slow process because floppy and cdrom are also checked. Moreover, as highlighted by Helmut, if udev is not used, the /dev directory is populated by high number of non-existant devices, which slow the process. My patch

Hi, I'm trying to install CentOS 4.5 in a PIII. Problem is the computer doesn't boot by the CD-ROM drive and when I try to access the BIOS to change the settings, the machine goes bezerk :( Is it possible to start the install through a floppy and then continue the rest of the install process with the CDs ? If so, how ? Any help would be appreciated. Warm regards, -- :wq! M?rio

Helo!! I need bootable disk or CD image LINUX with how makig instruktion . How start Linux from RAM disk (from bootable CD) and make changes in working disks with Linux ( in compressed files ) ?

I installed Xen 3.1.0 on a dual Opteron processors system from source with "make world" and "make install". The system boots up well with the 2.6.18-xen kernel. I compiled a dom0 kernel for the amd64 architetture, but the system doesn''t boots and give me this error: Root-NFS: No NFS server available, giving up.

I was able to install Xen with RHEL as domain0, and windows 2003 guest domain. I had a USB floppy disk can be mounted as /dev/sdb under Linux. But how to configure HVM file to export the floppy disk to Windows 2003 guest domain ? I tried to create an image of floppy disk with dd, and then add "file:/xxxxx/floppy.img,ioemu:hdb,w'' to disk option. But Windows only
