similar to: Syslinux and USB support

I have a number of syslinux based USB sticks which can be booted from PCs that support USB boot. I also have a number of PCs that do not support USB Boot. They are running Windows 2000 and Windows XP typically from ntfs formatted single partition drives. Is there a way to chainload syslinux residing on a plugged in usb stick from boot.ini? I've seen instructions for how to do this for OSs on

Hi Everyone, I''m running my Dom0 on Ubuntu 10.04. My Xen install is working ok - Xend is listening on port 8000 and xm list shows the running VMs. I wanted to upgrade my version of libvirt so I could get the latest virt-manager working with Xen 4.0. I used the Ubuntu packages linked on this page: http://spblinux.de/blog/2010/05/xen-4-0-with-libvirt-0-8-1-replace-xm-new-by-virsh/ I

Hello to everybody. I was wondering... is there a way to force wine to use always highest possible refrash rate - when I ran a game in Fullscreen? I ask because - for excample my good old Incubation works flawless on wine (testet with wine 0.9.27 and 0.9.28) but when I switch to fullscreen(640x480 for this game) the refresh rate is only at 60 HZ - and my eyes hurts after a while...

Hi List, what do you think is the best way to migrate (to a new maschine) round about 30000 mboxes (Qpopper) with an amount of 43Gigs data, to maildir format (Dovecot). I think there are two ways: 1. - stop services (smtp and pop3) on the old maschine - copy the mboxes to the new maschine - run a conversion script (for excample: "Perfect_maildir" http://perfectmaildir.home-dn.net/)

I have got few games that use Audio CD as music source. SonicR for excample - runs much better on linux (using wine) then on my W2k (doesn't run at all). But there is no music even thoug Audio CD is in the drive... - is it normal? Or is there some "switch" for audio cd to work?

Like the subject says, I know its possible for the specific program I have, I just don't remember how to do it, or maybe don't know. I have wine installed, and it is configured to notice the program in D: drive.

Hi, I have a M-Systems DiskOnKey USB Storage Device that I would like to use to boot a computer into Linux. I think this is possible but I'm having problems and have some questions: 1. What should be on the MBR of the USB device? I have tried using the mbr.bin in the syslinux-2.07 distro. 2. How does this device appear to the BIOS, i.e. what should the boot device be? USB-FDD,

Hello all! Another question: What are the commands lprm command, lpresume command, alpause command and so on good for? Alright, I can imagine that they are to controll the spooling behaviour on the server, but how can I get these Win95 Boxes to recognize that the spooling is happening on the server?

Hi, I've a usb-key that boot regularly on a PC using syslinux 2.09; well, this PC (a thin-client) at the moment is the only PC that can boot from USB in my office... and it usually booted oretty well, without any hacks... After changed to syslinux 3.07, it stopped booting, showing a simple "BOOT ERROR" message, nothing more... Reverting to syslinux 2.09, it restarted to work...

Hi! A friend of mine has tried a PXE floppy (build from the new etherboot 5.3.12) to load PXELINUX.0; a menu voice of the pxelinux.cfg use the LOCALBOOT statement. Selecting this statement, the PC retry to boot from the floppy... is this normal? The user expected that LOCALBOOT would have tried the NEXT boot device (ie CDROM or HD), not the FIRST boot device (the floppy)... (note: this has

Hi, I've seen that syslinux does include also a MBR record. But how can I install it on a HD under Windows? And how can I backup the previous MBR? Does syslinux help us on this task also? bye! -- Paolo Salvan _______________________________ X v i s i o n Via Vigonovese 123A 35127 - Padova - Italy +39 049 8709427 tel +39 049 8709426 fax www.xvision.it

I decided the FAT directory-parsing bug was about as serious as it gets, so I decided to push out a new release. However, I decided I feel comfortable enough with the new features (or at least, that they wouldn't break anything else, knock on wood) that I did the patch off the 3.10 development tree and called it 3.05. Changes in 3.05: * New API function "shuffle and

Hi ya, I want to add categories to the depot example in the Agile rails book. These are my thoughts: Create a new table called categories with id, title, description, and image fields. Add a new field to the products table called category_id Create a model called Category with "has_many :products" Now I should have a one to many link between the products and categories tables? Now

Hi Ian, I try compile the bootwrapper for cubieboard2 like this: joshzhao@joshzhao-ThinkCentre-M58p:~/project/Xen/A20/boot-wrapper$ make cubieboard2_defconfig CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- # # configuration written to .config # joshzhao@joshzhao-ThinkCentre-M58p:~/project/Xen/A20/boot-wrapper$ make CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- make -C scripts/kconfig -f Makefile.bootwrapper

I'm playing with syslinux 3.0x to get PC to boot from USB key... In particular, I'm giving a look at the "ZIP geometry hack" to get some more BIOS boot working with USB... Some question: - if we have a usbkey with a single partition, can we change the geometry without requiring to reformat the partition? Or is a reformat unavoidable? - at the moment we can use the "ZIP

Hi! I'm preparing what should be a general "network boot" solution for the ones that needs to do network boot on PC without BIOS support / ROM chips. It supports both PXE (like pxelinux.0) and NBI images. I've prepared a precompiled multi-driver image that can autodetect and handle nearly 30 PCI and ISA NICs. My "remote boot kit" contains the same image in 4
