similar to: SYSLINUX 2.09-pre13

I have just released SYSLINUX 2.09-pre4 with a few changes: a) SYSLINUX should now correctly handle mode changes from within a COMBOOT program. b) Tweaks to the menu system to avoid the "grey text on black" problem. c) A new color scheme for the menu system (Murali, check it out and see if you think it works for you.) ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/boot/syslinux/Testing/

OK, another prelease. This one is looking pretty good and the shortlog is appended below. Any testing that you can do would be greatly appreciated. In particular, Matt, could you try out this prerelease and see whether your disabled entries are no longer highlighted/selectable? If things stay looking good over the next few days we can hopefully cut a 4.06 final release at the weekend or early

HPA, I believe I've found a possible bug with /menu. This against the unmodified -pre5 snapshot. SRC: http://www.survivaldisk.com/menutest.c COMPILED: http://www.survivaldisk.com/menutest.com It's easiest explained if you just compile the .c and experience it for yourself, anyways. If you have two submenus nested within each other and then call a third menu it will bring up the

Hi all, I have released SYSLINUX 2.09; it is the same as 2.09-pre15 except for the version number. Changes in 2.09: * SYSLINUX: Remove residual setuid crap from syslinux-nomtools. * Handle video pages correctly when using the API functions. * Handle compiling on an x86-64 platform correctly. * Menu system from Murali Krishnan Ganapathy; see the

This release includes Murali's menu positioning patch; it is otherwise identical to 2.09-pre13. I will release this as 2.09 on Sunday unless I hear objections. Note that I've effectively been out of the loop, moving houses, for almost a month, so if there is something I'm forgetting please tell me... -hpa

This version contains a fix to mbr.asm, plus a version of Murali's menu system, but ported to gcc. Although gcc produces much bigger 16-bit code (since it's really 32-bit code with prefixes) I figured it would be much easier for people to deal with since it requires the configuration to be compiled in. That being said, it's a *very* powerful menu system, partially *because*

The menu directory won't compile with gcc 3.4.0 because gcc complains that "ebp" cannot be used as a constraint. If preserving ebp is necessary then it will have to be done in the assembler code. Gcc 3.3.3 just seems to ignore the constraint. It didn't do anything special to preserve the register. I also noticed that getnumrows returns the contents of 0x484 which is the

Look into the original XP cd and see where NTLDR is located, then place it on your cd in the same directory and it 'should' work. I have created some 2000 XP boot cd's with integrated recent service pack's and they still boot. But I do that with cdrecord+original boot sector, not with any isolinux stuff... But I hope this help! -----Original Message----- From: G. Murali

I have released SYSLINUX 2.10-pre2. I *really* would like testing reports for this one, especially ISOLINUX, since I've included Knut Petersen's fix for Award BIOSes... Changes in 2.10: * MEMDISK: Handle images compressed with zip as well as with gzip. Some Windows-based image tools apparently generate these kinds of images by default. Patch by Patrick

Hi, I'm sure this has been posted before. And I'm just wondering if anyone has ever implemented it. I just thought that this is really a nice feature for Syslinux.

I have created a HowTo page with a few things which I hope to eventually expand. How does one add a link to it from the side bar. I was going to add stuff to the wiki about the structure of the config file and using the menu's, when I saw that the information is already there, just not easily reachable. I think the wiki can be made a lot more usable, if we just add a few links here are there.

With some help from Nathan Laredo, I cribbed my way though porting the Win32 installer on my own accord. Thus, I believe we now have something which can be called a release candidate. Given how much stuff managed to make it in, after all, I'm seriously considering calling it 3.00, but for now it's 2.20-pre13. So, everyone that can, please test it out. In particular, I have not yet

Hello all, I just installed syslinux 2.10 on my usb-stick. It still boots then, but doesn't load initrd.gz (same config file..). Reverting back to syslinux 2.09 works fine, eg: initrd.gz is loaded. Something changed in initrd handling code? greetz, Jaap Crezee NB I am willing to share you more information or hints how to solve the problem. I am using kernel 2.6.7-bk20

It works! Now, is there a way to use this handler multiple times so different submenus can have different position values. -Aaron On Fri, 2 Apr 2004, ganapathy murali krishnan wrote: > You write your own menupos_handler (like in complex.c) and register the > handler. > > So all you need to do is to copy the code for the menupos_handler from > complex.c and modify it to suit

I am using PXELINUX, ISOLINUX, and memdisk in my project (http://unattended.sourceforge.net/). When memdisk gained support for compressed images, I started using it because it is cool. I used gzip to compress floppy.img to create floppy.imz, and all was good. But now my users are complaining that they cannot use WinImage (a Windows floppy image editing tool) to edit my floppy.imz files. I have

Goodness, how many prereleases has there been in the last week... have lost count... Anyway, I have implemented the already-promised chainbooting API, and have included a sample program to chainboot floppies (it works for harddisks too, but only for the MBR.) As a bonus, in the process I actually discovered that booting .bs/.bss images under SYSLINUX was actually broken... that has been

Hi all, I have put out a SYSLINUX 2.09-pre1 release, mostly to support Murali's menu development: Changes in 2.09: * SYSLINUX: Remove residual setuid crap from syslinux-nomtools. * Handle video pages correctly when using the API functions. * Handle compiling on an x86-64 platform correctly. As usual,

Hi all, I have released SYSLINUX 2.09-pre11; the only difference is Murali's latest patches for the menu system, mostly to add the ability to add separators to the menus. ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/boot/syslinux/Testing/ Please test it out. Some time over the weekend I'm going to do a sweep for bug fixes I've forgotten and otherwise I'd like to release 2.09 next

I mentioned in a private email recently that it would be useful if syslinux had a malloc implementation. I have one now if anyone's interested. -- Hebe 2004-02-08 14:26:08.183 UTC (JD 2453044.101484) X = -1.159504592, Y = 2.015990327, Z = 0.638260245 X' = -0.010415779, Y' = -0.003652077, Z' = 0.001024628

Sorry to plague the list, but I think I got the answer. The following would do: > signalList <- list(tradingRules$Signal[tradingRules$Enabled]) [[1]] > length(signalList) [1] 2 Now my problem is shifted: I have the Signal column in the original data frame referring to actual matrices previously created in R. That is, bar_signal and cif_signal are extant matrices. What I need is the
