similar to: ONTIMEOUT and menu

Hi, I am having some problem with LOCALBOOT and menu.c32 This is my isolinux.cfg: ------------------------------------------- default menu.c32 timeout 50 prompt 0 ontimeout local menu title "TITLE" label livecd menu default manu label "LiveCD" kernel gentoo append initrd=initrd.igz root=/dev/ram0 init=/linuxrc looptype=squashfs loop=/ livecd.squashfs

I just started to play with syslinux 3.11 and have some problems with the configuration. I want to implement following: wait 5 seconds till the users chooses the right label. if nothing is done for 5 seconds it should boot from next boot device specified by the BIOS. I configured syslinux like that: default menu.c32 prompt 0 timeout 50 ONTIMEOUT localboot totaltimeout 200 display boot.msg MENU

Hi, I just found this post: http://syslinux.zytor.com/archives/2005-September/005814.html ONTIMEOUT was broken in menu.c32, and you fixed it. But the fix broke support for LABEL references in ONTIMEOUT. I changed my "ONTIMEOUT local" to "ONTIMEOUT .localboot -1" and it works! Anoying is that I tried ONTIMEOUT LOCALBOOT -1 before. This failed, but after having a look at the

I am using the following simple menu and have noticed that items at the bottom are dropping off. I seem to be limited to 12 items. Is there a limit to how many items can be on the simple menu? default pxelinux.cfg/menu.c32 prompt 0 MENU TITLE UWSP PXE Boot Menu # TIMEOUT 200 LABEL bartpe MENU LABEL Build 12 KERNEL /STARTROM.0 APPEND keeppxe LABEL 11dnet MENU LABEL Build 11DNET beta

Hi. I'm trying to get around the problem of an overloaded tftp server causing a pxelinux client hanging at the boot: prompt, waiting for input (no one will input anything to it). The server is OK enough to give the pxebootloader but not the config file, as in this thread: http://syslinux.zytor.com/archives/2004-June/003662.html So, in that case, I guess setting TIMEOUT to some

sorry - i must have overlooked the part where you mentioned that.. my fault. What software are you looking at ? Altiris maybe ? I am, ofcourse interested in the option you are looking for. Please keep this list updated.

Hi Aaron, i know it is not an interactive menu - but in my 'config' file i call for a textfile to be displayed : DISPLAY menu.txt that contains all my labels. See the first part of my 'config' : label 0 LOCALBOOT 0 label 1 KERNEL memdisk/memdisk APPEND initrd=images/w2k/unatt.ima label 2 KERNEL memdisk/memdisk APPEND

Working on fixing lower-priority bugs that I didn't want to risk destabilizing the 2.07 release for: Changes in 2.08: * Add "timeoutcmd" to allow timeout to have a different action than just pressing Enter. * Fix bugs in the COMBOOT/COM32 command-line parsing. APPEND now works with COMBOOT/COM32 images.

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

I've finally gotten around to playing with the advanced menu, though the complex example is definitely still beyond me. I'm trying to figure out a few basics from it, such as the tab key for line editing (don't know what I've done wrong here since it seems like I copied that part right) and the timeout. It looks to me like the only ontimeout implemented so far is an option to not

Hey, Firstly i like to say good work on your project, I love the ability to use PXE to ghost all my machines without the use of floppy disks. Now i managed to setup PXE correctly using a copy of Barts Boot Disk's with ModBOOT and modified it to meet our company needs. This works perfect and i can ghost not a problem using the standard loader prompt boot: and inserting text depending on

I assumed the keys not working would be specific to my straight-booting wish, but playing around with the suggestions that you provided, I see it's indeed more

Hello, First, could you make a tar.gz instead of a tar.xz (at least on debian)? I compiled the syslinux-4.05+dfsg I would like to ask you if I shall copy the menu.elf + menu.c32 to the concerned directory? The menu.elf is needed or it shall be renamed as menu.c32 ? Shall ldlinux.sys be too coming from same file? my simple example of menu: default menu.c32 prompt 0 MENU TITLE Sample Menu

Hello All, this is my first post so I'll try to be as verbose as possible. We have a PXE deployment server serving mostly fujitsu RX300 rack mount servers with Intel 82575EB Gigabit Ethernet Controllers onboard. I recently upgraded from version 4.07 to version 6.02 and, without making any edits to my default menu, immediately noticed a regression. I use vesamenu.c32 to present a menu to the
