Is there a way to use IPAPPEND 1 on the pxelinux command line. I want to be able to pass the whole command line in my menu files and not use the config file. Thanks Aaron

does the IPAPPEND option still exist? If so I want clearification on it please. Out of the syslinux documentation it says the following. The flag_val is an OR of the following options: 1: indicates that an option of the following format should be generated and added to the kernel command line: ip=client-ip:boot-server-ip:gw-ip:netmask ... based on the input from the DHCP/BOOTP or PXE boot

Hello Using pxelinux for so long time i don't want to use pxegrub to PXE boot solaris 10 on x86 . So i would like to use pxelinux to do this jobs . I use ipappend and mboot.c32 however i don't success to have the kernel argument appended with BOOTIF : here is what i use : LABEL solaris MENU DEFAULT MENU LABEL Solaris Jumpstart KERNEL mboot.c32 APPEND multiboot kernel/unix

core and the simple menu do not interpret the IPAPPEND/SYSAPPEND directives in the same way. Which is the proper way?

I have been using PXELINUX with the "ipappend 2" option for a long time. To make things a little more user friendly, I decided to set up menus (text menus with menu.c32), but they wouldn't work (blank screen and corrupted menu flashes by when you hit a key). I went through all kinds of combinations of options, and finally found that commenting out the "ipappend 2" line

Just spent a few hours going mad(der) wondering why my menu config wasn't working. It looks like the change in 3.74 ("Add IPAPPEND to com32 modules, especially needed for linux.c32") breaks menu.c32 (and possibly other modules) since they aren't expecting it. In particular menu.c32 uses that as an optional menu file, it then complains "Initial menu has no LABEL

Is it normal for pxelinux to append something like BOOTIF=01-aa-bb-cc-dd-ee-ff ? the leading 01- is there in my config file name, but this doesn't seem to be right behaviour. Can someone confirm if this is a bug? I tried this on syslinux 3.21. thanks. -- Ram Yalamanchili

Hello, I have not been able to get the IPAPPEND option to successfully set the ip parameters for a pxelinux install. I have LABEL install KERNEL pxelinux.cfg/tftpboot.img APPEND initrd=pxelinux.cfg/initrdfs.gz root=/dev/ram IPAPPEND 1 where tftpboot.img is either of http://ftp.debian.org/debian/dists/woody/main/disks-i386/current/ idepci/tftpboot.img

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 While testing PXE booting, I decided to change IPAPPEND to the new SYSAPPEND and does not work: nothing is appended to command line.

Starting back in RHEL/Cent 5 I found that the only way to make sure your interface enumeration was consistent after install with what you had during install was to create a udev rules file using the mac addresses as the key. It is easy to run a short script in postinstall to create it based on how anaconda has seen them. In order for this to work on Cent 6 you have to set biosdevname=0

Please, do not ask why you would do this. I have simplified my complicated code to just the basic problem occuring to be able to make it easier to understand the actual problem. I have two function getArgs() and extractArgs() - code and test results provided below. I test them using getArgs(id = 's1002') from the command line. getArgs() prints the name of the argument as id and the
