similar to: booting dos with pxelinux

hi: i try to make some images for pxelinux+memdisk. the version i try is 2.0.6 and 2.0.7pre5 for 2.88M floppy image, first i make a 1.44M boot floopy, then use "winimage" to load the disk and transfer it to 2.88M format, then save the image. it seems a easy way to make a 2.88M boot image. for harddisk image, i use vmware to build a virtual machine with 20M harddisk, make it boot

Hello, I'm trying to boot a dos floppy stored on a disk image which is initially loaded over pxe using memdisk.

Hi & sorry if this is too "newbie" of a question but I just can`t find a solution. I`m trying to use smbclient or at least smbmount, but both is not working. What I want to do is: copy files via command line (I will have to do that later with an automated script) from my Linux server to the NT Server (server1) in a directory called "photo library test" (I tried as well

Hello all, I have a few questions about the menuing system that I haven't been able to find in the archives (it would be nice if they were available in a searchable form other than having to click on a month-by month basis and read through them - if they are searchable I would love to find a way to do this but it hasn't jumped out at me). My first question is : What is menu.c32? I

I have got pxelinux booting a DOS ramdisk via the memdisk program from the command line. However I am having a problem getting it to use the configuration file. pxelinux find the configuration directory, pxelinux.cfg and then finds the file, C0A801, and reads the file, but no matter what I put on my "kernel" line, it looks for a kernel named "linux". When I create a sofft

Hi I searched in the list and only found questions without answers e.g. http://finzi.psych.upenn.edu/R/Rhelp02a/archive/19955.html : Is there a way to get the same results with lme as with aov with Error()?

After succesfully launching automated Linux install using MTFTP, DHCP and PXE servers all running W2K, I wanted to explore the possibility of using the same setup to serve DOS boot floppies through the same PXE server. Is this possible? I cannot hardcode the MAC addresses of the NICs as the computers will be updated every month or so. Thank you in advance, Fet

Hello list, My set up is almost complete in booting DOS through PXELinux, but I need to create a DOS boot image from (2 )DOS floppies. I've search the archives and google but didn't find any relavant info... My current set up now works with the standard setup (with one DOS floppy): kernel: memdisk append: initrd=floppy.img ramdisk=10000 My goal to is create a floppy.img from 2 DOS

I'm trying to use this universal DOS TCP/IP boot disk available here: http://members.iinet.net.au/~bdriver/bootdisk/ It requires an MS-DOS formatted disk created by Windows XP. It works great as a floppy but doesn't boot at all with memdisk. The problem can be simplified down to just the XP boot disk. If you make an MS-DOS startup disk with XP on a floppy, dd the floppy to an image

I am using pxelinux to boot a dos image using memdisk. Now what I'd like to do is connect via tftp and fetch an additional file from DOS. I am using the 'keeppxe' memdisk option; can I access the pxe stack from DOS, and retrieve the TFTP server address? I am using MS-DOS currently, and syslinux-1.76. -- Andre Dalle [andre at dalle.ca]
