Hallo, I try to boot the windows 98 bootdisk via memdisk. It doesn't work completely. Booting a freedos FD image works, booting the windows 98 image works too. But the windows 98 boot disk then should extract the file "ebd.cab" with the file "extract.com", and that step fails. Is that a syslinux problem or a windows problem? Viele Gruesse! Helmut

I have worked in IT for several years and programming or anything related to this is not exactly one of my strengths. I need help creating a vesamenu.. Im trying to setup up so I can access my Acronis backup and disaster recovery 10 server, knoppix live cd, hardware diagnostics - pcdoctor and maybe a hiren type boot cd. I checked the Linux irc channel which I guess is now abandoned. If anyone

I got this figured out much faster than I thought I would. Thanks to all of your help, Peter, Mattias, Thomas and Helmut. And Thomas, that 8 partition live OS sounds right up my alley, and I will definitely check it out. The second partition is working well with `parted' and `fdisk', so I am quite pleased. Below is, again, "what I came up with". I tried to integrate each of your

I dont know if this will be of any interest to you guys. I have a lexar 1GB flash drive. I used the mkdiskimage script and then did syslinux as described in the readme.usbkey. (the script took a REALLY long time too) I booted into 3.7 knoppix. Copied all the directories onto the key. Then copied the contents of the /boot dir into the root dir. I renamed isolinux.cfg to syslinux.cfg I had

Hello, we have the following problem: - a new Dell Optiplex 740 boots pxelinux.0 - loads the kernel - start to load the miniroot.gz and crashs after loading about 1/5 of the miniroot The tftpd messages are: Feb 21 14:48:32 srv006 atftpd[26225]: Advanced Trivial FTP server started (0.7) Feb 21 14:48:32 srv006 atftpd[26225]: Serving /linux/pxelinux.0 to 10.10.100.113:2070 Feb 21 14:48:32 srv006

Hi, I am currently trying to replace our companies elilo UEFI PXE boot with syslinux. I compiled all the needed files and the DHCP distributes them fine to the requesting client. However when I try to boot our companies miniroot the DHCP serves the file, but it seems like it never finishes. The image is generated with the following command: find . | grep -v 'name'.bz2 | cpio -o -H newc

Hi There is a problem when creating a domU.

Hi All, Now that we have multiboot capable pxelinux, thanks to mboot.c32, I decided to try and remove pxegrub from my x86 jumpstart infrastructure since, in theory, pxelinux can now do it all. The problem I'm having is I'm not very sure I'm following Tim's documentation correctly... I'm not 100% what comes after the --- and whether the Sun kernel needs it's arguments

Working to get ZFS to run on a minimal Solaris 10 U2 configuration. In this scenario, ZFS is included the miniroot which is booted into RAM. When trying to share one of the filesystems, an assertion is raised - see below. If the version of source on OpenSolaris.org matches Solaris 10 U2, then it looks like it''s associated with a popen of /usr/sbin/share. Can anyone shed any

I'm having some difficulties pxe booting Solaris. So far I have tried the mboot.c32, and the pxegrub shipped with Solaris. At first I had some problems with blksize, but this disapeared when I changed from atftpd to tftpd-hpa. The point at which I'm stuck now is, the kernel and x86.microroot/x86.miniroot is loaded but then VMWare crashes. I might try with real hardware, but I thought

Let me thank everyone in advance. I''ve read a number of posts here and it helped tremendously in getting the install done. I have a couple of remaining issues which I can''t seem to overcome.

Hi all, I'm trying to use mboot.c32 to build our Solaris machines but the problem we are getting is the network interface doesn't get configured. It would boot in to the miniroot and then drops in to a shell. At the shell, if I configure the interface via dhcp it would continue on with the jumpstart. This is the first time we are using syslinux (version 4.04) and looking at the
