similar to: bug / incompatibility with USB booting in Syslinux 3.00 pre9 ?

I have just released SYSLINUX 3.00-pre9. The only change versus 3.00-pre8 is that the MEMDISK query API now reports the boot loader ID byte, per Bernd's suggestion. This is a release candidate, and I plan to release it as 3.00 *tomorrow*, unless I hear back anything bad. -hpa

Just a few bug-reports, before I forget: - A Windows installer bug for 4.06 and presumably 5.00-pre9 whereby the ADV contains backslashes. Reproduced with: syslinux.exe --directory \two\dirs e: - An open() (?) bug for 4.06 and presumably 5.00-pre9 whereby the filename /ubcd/custom/syslinux-5.00-pre9/com32/gplinclude/acpi/facs.h fails to open() after 134 iterations in a loop where it's

I have just pushed out SYSLINUX 3.10-pre9. Please test it out, especially everyone who has been working with me on various systems trying to get them to work, or have had recent breakage. -hpa

Dear all, I packaged syslinux 6.03-pre9 on AMD64 Debian Sid, however, the problem is, I have problem to use it for PXE booting (BIOS mode). It always gives me "Failed to load COM32 file vesamenu.c32". I am sure all the settings are correct because if I switch to the prebuilt syslinux downloaded from

Hi everyone, Kevin Tran of Broadcom just identified a very serious bug in PXELINUX where random parts of the PXE stack would get overwritten by PXELINUX. As a result, I have release SYSLINUX 2.00-pre9 for testing; if you have had problems with PXELINUX **PLEASE** test this version. I will try to make a SYSLINUX 2.00 some time this week if this tests out OK. I will also hunt for similar bugs

Based on a few reports I've gotten today, I have make a new release candidate, 3.11-pre9, and am pushing out the release target to Friday, September 2. New in this release candidate: - Change to MEMDISK, which hopefully will work right both on machines with and without physical floppies. - Try to enable the 16550A FIFO for serial console. I'm hoping this will help eliminate dropped

Folks, I've just pushed out another prerelease for the 5.00 branch. The idea behind this -pre was to merge in the final 4.06 release. I'm aiming for a final 5.00 release next week, but as we saw with the 4.06 branch, anything can happen and these deadlines can get pushed backwards. Please, test if you can. One thing that is going to happen next week is a Syslinux-6.00-pre1, which will

Folks, I've build a tiny repo to provide GIMP 2.3.15 (and 2.3.14 as a possible fallback) for EL5. GIMP 2.3.15 is the last version of GIMP that builds with no errors with the GTK+ version that ships with EL. 2.3.15 is "almost GIMP 2.4", as 2.3.19 was the last development release prior to 2.4.0. To the extent of my knowledge, Akkana Peck wrote the first edition of her book on GIMP

I/ it's very easy to boot on USB key because the Bios is up-to-date, and install the Flonix USB Edition with documentation of linuxdocs.tuxfamily.org/doc/ ... and all seems good, even syslinux .exe e: with Windows XP /PC HP pavillion ZE 4130 but in the boot, i obtain the message: missing operating system ?? II/ other thing about a floppy, to create a boot-floppy: vmlinux and initrd.gz are

I have released SYSLINUX 1.75-pre9... it's just a simple one-line bug fix over -pre8. I expect this will be the final 1.75. http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/boot/syslinux/Testing/ -hpa

Thanks to Dell for sending me a specimen system, and of course, rPath, my employer, for letting me spend the several days it took to chase this one down. There is a memory-overwrite bug where part of the BIOS data area gets overwritten by certain comboot calls, including some used by the simple menu system. Anyone who has had problems where booting from the prompt works but the menu system

Hello everyone, I have released SYSLINUX 3.63. The main update is a fix to EXTLINUX, which would get confused by directories with deleted file entries. Special thanks to Stas Kysel of rPath, Inc. for spotting this problem and giving me an excellent test case; and of course to rPath, Inc. in general for being my employer and being extremely supportive of my SYSLINUX work! I have also

... and this is pretty much the first version of 2.20 which can be considered likely to actually work, except for the Win32 installer. The big news in this prerelease, by far, is EXTLINUX. I'm also hacking on a "simple menu system" as a com32 module; basically a hack to re-parse the config file and display a menu of its label statements. Don't know when that'll be ready

Hi everyone, I have a zero vector of length N and I would like to randomly allocate the value 1 to one of the values of this vector.

I am running MD 10 (Community) as a file server on a Shuttle SB61G2. This setup worked very well under Mandrake 9.2 however, everytime I try to copy files larger than say <550 ~650MB using MD 10, my linux box freezes and must be rebooted. I can FTP the same file(s) perfectly fine to other PC 's on my home net. Small volumes of files work fine as well as ISO images, the box seems to
