similar to: Problem with FreeDOS ke2034_32 + PXELINUX + memdisk

(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,

I and some other people have problems with running the freedos image included in Ultimate Boot CD (UBCD), when using memdisk for floppy emulation. Memdisk starts booting the image and freedos shows the following menu: 0 Boot Clean 1 Boot UMBPCI (silent) 2 Boot UMBPCI (optimal) 3 Boot UMBPCI (semi-defensive) 4 Boot EMM386 (optimal) 5 Boot EMM386 (semi-defensive) 6 Boot no UMB (defensive) 7 Boot

Hi! sorry for the top post. I have had some troubles in the past trying to make equipment to boot a floppy with MS-DOS that also used ms networking to access the network. Particularly the Gateway GSX 500 cannot have the onboard NIC with PXE enabled, as it eats about 92k of highmemory, which in turn makes impossible to start Windows XP setup due to low memory. On that particular machine I had

>that image under B: or X: or whatever. This will allow us to cross the >size limit of 2.88MB floppies. Ofcourse when I say "mount" I dont expect >memdisk to mount it, just that set things up so that DOS mounts it there. I'm using a 5MB image which emulates floppydisk. label test kernel data/memdisk append initrd=data2/test.img c=80 h=8 s=18 floppy problems are

I am working on a Linux-based boot disk for my project (http://unattended.sourceforge.net/), and I have hit a snag. Under Linux 2.6, the kernel (via HDIO_GETGEO) always reports the C/H/S geometry of an IDE drive as X/16/63. But most BIOSes want to use the geometry Y/255/63. Most partitioning tools (including Parted) will take clues from an existing partition table and adapt to the BIOS values.

Hi, I'm trying to get the above working, without success so far: UNDIS.DOS refuses to load with an invalid NDIS stack message (from memory). keeppxe has some effect: it reduces the available conventional memory by 140 kbytes or so... still, the packet driver doesn't seem to find the interface. Does anybody have a working setup I could look at? -- Thanks, Feri.

I've got $SUBJ almost working except for the DOS bit where the CD needs to be read. My pxe config: label Firmware menu label Update IPMI firmware kernel memdisk append keeppxe raw iso initrd=<isofile> The ISO is about 400Mb, and works fine when I boot it from an actual CDROM drive. It also boots fine over PXE, I can see FreeDOS being booted up etc. The problem is - once

Hi everyone, Here is the problem: I have a server running Red Hat 5.2 and Samba-2.0.4 as file server for about 20 diskless machines with MSClient boot disks (created with NT server SP3). The server shares a dir with a Clipper/DBF database for those clients and the EXE file is in a NT machine. For weeks I've been trying to put the things together but the clients always break

Hi there, I have a client in a network using a samba-server that has to use MSDOS, because some software running on it needs a clean DOS. I installed the DOS-Client for TCPIP that is available from Microsoft V 1.0 and it works fine; the only thing is, that it takes so much memory below 640 K, that another program also running under DOS does not function correctly anymore. Maybe some of the

Hi. I am experimenting with the Linux CIFS client included with Linux 2.6.6, and I am having some problems. First, I tried to map shares from a Samba 2.0.10 server (old machine). Is this supposed to work at all? The mount succeeds, and I can traverse and list directories, but any attempt to open a file for reading results in "permission denied". The Samba server logs this message:

Okay, what's the deal? How come ppmtolss16 always terminates with "Premature EOF"? A previous poster said he fixed it by using a different conversion routine, but that doesn't help me at all. In fact, it appears to me the problem is with perl 5.8, not the file. Characters vs. bytes? Another poster said adding "use bytes" to ppmtolss16 fixed the error. That may

Hi, I want to use PXELINUX to load a DOS disk image which I currently use for Win2K/XP unattended installs. I want to move away from reliance on specific NDIS2 drivers and use the 3Com UNDIS3C driver instead. I have used this successfully to start the MSClient, but the problem is that the UNDI and PXE layer take about 90K of base memory, which means that WINNT.EXE has insufficent memory to run

Hello all, I plan to make an (emergency) multi OS bootable CD which contain: - Win98 boot floppy (create from Win 98 control panel, add remove program) - WinME boot floppy (create from Win 98 control panel, add remove program) - Linux boot disk - Win NT boot disk - Win 2000 recovery console - Win XP recovery console - Winternal Administrative Pak (ERD Commander etc) I am new to Linux and feel

Given that this is compiled with -O0, would there a way to skip the Optimization of the Type-legalized selection DAG? It's fine until it optimizes the Type-legalized selection DAG into the Optimized Type-legalized selection DAG.

Hi there, I'm following your list for several months, as we run a CTDB cluster of Samba gateways over our distributed filesystem. I decided to post my first message to resume an old thread (https://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2016-October/204043.html), hoping to progress and reach some conclusion. Essentially, we observe and can reproduce issues when attempting to lock a given file

Before we start accessing a huge (> 16 TiB) OCFS2 volume, we need to confirm that its journal supports 64-bit offsets. So we need to check the journal's feature bits before recovering the journal. This is not possible with JBD2 at present, because the journal superblock (where the feature bits reside) is not loaded from disk until the journal is recovered. This patch loads the journal

Hi all :) that's my first post, he =) I need some help about having the IPAPPEND 3 in my freedos (odin) environnement after a PXE boot using PXELinux / Memdisk... i've been searching for few hours now, but didn't found anything.. Is there a way to get that done ? Thanks in advance J?r?mie 'ahFeel' BORDIER

Hello: I read the archive posting for September 2005, http://syslinux.zytor.com/archives/2005-September/005809.html, where you stated that you have a freedos diskette that allows you to download and run an iso like it was a cd in a drive. I am in need of the ability to have a freedos bootable cd that contains other Linux ISO's that I could mount and boot to. In your experience with
