Hi! First of all, sorry for my english. I have one problem. I'm creating a server to install PC's with PXE (dhcpd, tftp, nfs, etc...). And, at the syslinux moment, the image (splash.lss/logo.16/...) is not displayed, but the text into boot.msg works ok (colors and background ok). I copied files from Knoppix, Fedora and others... But it's the same: No image, but text and colors ok.

Hi All, I am having trouble with pxelinux display file not calling the correct name to retrieve the graphic image. I guess the filename length is determained the first time ^X is used, and doesnt re-size the field name on next call. For example when cycling through F1 - F2 - F3 the f1 image displays fine, and its the longer name f2 & f3 just display the text and no image, output from

Hello all, Forgive me if this has been asked before, I've been googling for two days now and the only thing that I've learned is that bootsplash is a total black art. I'm booting off of a USB stick and I've finally gotten a splash screen to appear before vmlinuz and initrd load, but once they load the splash screen scrolls off the screen. Is there any way to make it behave and

I've begun tinkering with syslinux v3 and have uncovered an anomoly with the DISPLAY file when called by pxelinux.0. If I have: DISPLAY boot.msg With an "^Xsplash.lss\n" in the file boot.msg (exactly: 18 73 70 6C 61 73 68 2E 6C 73 73 0A) file, it will fail to load the rle image. And produce some goofy results in the tftpd log: Jun 5 06:27:06 pxe in.tftpd[24649]: RRQ from

Hi all, I know I've done this in the past, but I can't seem to get it working today... I want to roll my own ISO and use custom splash.jpg. If I roll the ISO with the stock splash.jpg, it works. When I save my own 800x600 .jpg as splash.jpg though, I get a black screen. I made sure the permissions and ownership was the same. Is there a special way that the JPG has to be

Hello, I am a newbie when it comes to Dovecot, and in following this ( http://workaround.org/articles/ispmail-etch/ ) document in setting these things up, I have run into an error that I am not quite certain what to do... I am running Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon, and using 1.0.5 for Dovecot. The message I am getting when I try to 'restart' Dovecot (using '/etc/init.d/dovecot restart') is:

Hello, I am trying to implement the following formula using for loops and vectors. I am sure you can use some fancy R code to solve this but I would like to keep it simple and stick to for and vector/array if that is possible. TP = 200; RL = 50; TPR1 = TP - RL; TPR2 = TP + RL; PPO = 0; LSS = 0.1; counter = 1; for(i in res) { # Even if(counter %% 2 == 1) { ls = abs((sum(LSS)* TP)) /

Cc'd back to the list... always use reply-all. You say res should have been LSS but LSS is a scalar so the for loop will only run once. What does a successful output look like for a sample input? How do you (we) know when success has been achieved? In fact, what is the formula you want to implement? If your code below is the definition of your "formula" then we are left with no

G'day, I created a file to add mime-type detection for lss16 images... All you need to do is put it (unzipped) in /usr/share/mime/packages (or your equivalent) and run: update-mime-database -V /usr/share/mime Then you can just associate lss images with Mtpaint, to make life easier... Note: - I didn't know about the name (lss vs. lss16), so I just went by what the "file"

Hi, I have just joined the list. I am the original creator of Puppy Linux, now letting other guys take the reins, and I am working on a fork of Puppy called Quirky Linux, where I try various experimental ideas. Up until now, in Puppy and all offshoots, we have used syslinux 4.05 or older. Over the last few days I have been testing 6.03 (using the binary DEBs from Ubuntu 14.10 Utopic Unicorn),

Hi! I'm trying to create a custom logo for syslinux but keep bumping my head on the conversion to LSS16. The sample syslogo.png works fine so I decided to start with a known quantity by loading it into the Gimp. I cleared the canvas, color filled a blue background (0x000033) placed some yellow letters on the blue (0xffff00) and saved the file back out with the default compression. The

Hi , I am using syslinux-2.04. I used the isolinux boot loader, to create a customized boot cd. As an add on to that process, i thought of displaying the product logo in the bootup screen. So as the document suggested i went on to create the lss from png. But it failed with following message. $ ~archives/syslinux-2.04/ppmtolss16 < ipm-white.pnm > ipm-white.lss './ppmtolss16:

Upon finding a different image conversion program, I have eliminated the Premature EOF problem that I had(apologies if I post this before the moderator approves my first post...you can ignore it if/when it shows up). Now, I am seeing the script complete with no error. I tested my syslinux.dpy file with the syslogo.lss file from the samples, and it's fine. The lss file I created, however,

The following code can be used to convert a 256 color BMP to LSS format for use as a SYSLINUX/ISOLINUX/PXELINUX Splash screen. The bitmap must be LESS than 640 pixels wide (bug) and only uses the first 16 colors. CorelDraw and PhotoShop are good for re-palletizing and dithering.

Hal's advice helps me a lot to understand the implementation much better. Thanks so much! So, now I am able to state my problem more clearly: 1) There are two kinds of locals, i.e., the local variables originated from the source code (like C/C++), and the compilation generated temporaries. After instruction selection phase, the former is seen as frame indexes, while the latter is seen as

Hi I have a small problem with displaying splash image in Syslinux, my boot.msg looks like this : - - - cut - - - <ASCII 12> before <ASCII 24>splash.lss after <ASCII 26> - - - cut - - - In VMware everything works OK, but when i restart my computer with burned iso it only display text over and under the splash.lss What it could be ? best regards AR.,,

Hi All: Using the following line, I am trying to install Scientific Linux (a RHEL derivative like CentOS), but the installer never sees my kickstart file : virt-install -n test-dev1 --ram=1024 --vcpus=2 --file=/dev/zvol/dsk/zfs_pool/xen/lss-kickstart1/root \ --file=/dev/zvol/dsk/zfs_pool/xen/lss-kickstart1/swap \ --file=/dev/zvol/dsk/zfs_pool/xen/lss-kickstart1/nfs \ --accelerate

Dear sir, We are making a new installation CD for Haydar Linux, Beta1 CD was booting using a lilo on a virtual image and we want to make Beta2 boot using isolinux but we also need a boot splash and don't know if it possible in isolinux. Can you please tell us if it possible, because we have tried using ssl images and it did not succeed and i don't know if the configuration was wrong.

I am trying to open an existing binary file, seek to a position in the middle, and then write one byte, while keeping the already existing data after that byte. It seems to me that I am unable to open a connection to a binary file in both read and write mode. I can open the "r+b" binary file connection and seek around, but I can't write to the file. And looking at the function

Hello, I am using the following code to create ppp files from csv data and map shape files, but I am getting some errors which I have been unable to fix by searching them online: library(spatstat) library(maps) library(maptools) NYC2<-readShapePoly("nybb.shp") # this is a map of the NYC boroughs without waterways and no census tract divisions (but it does include lines separating
