similar to: ipappend on command line

I'm using ipappend and getargs.com with a dos boot image to get the environment variables for the IP and MAC. The format of the %ip% environment variable is ip=<client-ip>:<boot-server-ip>:<gw-ip>:<netmask> Is there a way to tell ipappend to assign these to individual arguments. Or does anyone know a good way to parse each of these to individual variables in dos. What

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

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

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

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 .

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.

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

Background: I recently wrote to Peter Anvin regarding IPAPPEND functionality, and he suggested I take the issue to this mailing list. I see it has been touched upon several times, after reviewing the archives. Let me see if I can add to it with a good level of detail: When using PXE to network boot a linux client, PXE must first acquire the client's IP address, by dhcp request, then, the

Hi all I'm trying to resolve a problem that's recently popped up by turning on auxillary VLANs for our Linux workstations. The problem shows as DHCP failling for anaconda (but always succeeds for PXE). I tried adding 'ipappend 1' to the pxelinux config files but had no joy. I'm thinking that if I write a COM32 module that adds "ip=1.2.3.4 gateway=1.2.3.1

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

core and the simple menu do not interpret the IPAPPEND/SYSAPPEND directives in the same way. Which is the proper way? Either way, this should be clarified in the documentation. com32/elflink/ldlinux/readconfig.c: } else if ((ep = looking_at(p, "ipappend")) || (ep = looking_at(p, "sysappend"))) { uint32_t s = strtoul(skipspace(ep), NULL,

Hello Shao, Thank you for your hint. I saw this one already earlier but I wanted to avoid it for two reasons: - One of my images uses a CPIO INITRD which I found rather complicated editing (like I wrote I'm quite new to all that Linux stuff). - For each new release I will need to do the changes to the prebuilt images again. I'm not the one who creates the images. I'm downloading

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

Hi guys, I have been fighting with Syslinux and PXElinux for two days now. I have gotten the floppy to boot but can't get pxelinux to work. I get a message: No !PXE or PXENV+ API fournd; we're dead I am guessing this means I need something else on the floppy? The floppy has: # ls /floppy/ total 24K -r-xr-xr-x 1 9.4K Nov 2 16:31 ldlinux.sys -rwxr-xr-x 1 14K Nov 2 16:50
