similar to: Isolinux

I have a Lilo.conf file, which I have tried for many hours to convert to Syslinux. I looked around on the web for references on translating some of the components. I want to convert it to Syslinux/Isolinux. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. When I tried to convert it I made sure that the kernel and initrd had proper DOS names and such. -Michael =:LILO.CONF:= prompt timeout=10

I'd like to take advantage of the small, compressed Linux systems such as Knoppix or BeatrIX, but I can't have a CD rom on my system. (A project's marketing requirement.). So I figure I could use something like SYSLINUX or ISOLINUX to do it for me, but there is some magic in the process (the sequence of booting) that eludes me. 1/ mbr (from SYSLINUX) installed on hard drive... and

Hello! I'm trying to boot with a remastered Knoppix 3.4 CD. I burned it with debugging and I get the following output: isolinux: Starting up, DL = 9F isolinux: Loaded spec packet OK, drive = 9F isolinux: Loading main image from LBA = DEADBEF0 isolinux: Sectors to load = D5B7 isolinux: Disk error BE, AX = 42F0, drive 9F A don't understand everything in it and I can't find enough

Hello, Can I load setupldr.bin directly using isolinux without original CD boot sector? Thanks, Theewara

Hi, I am trying to figure out a poor mans install ... I want to be able to boot CD iso thats on my hard disc .. There is an option to install via hard drive .. but I keep getting VFAT16 files system errors .. I know where copied iso image is ... I can boot kernel but linuxrc will not start LiveCD ... Maybe I could rewrite linuxrc to allow this but as it works from ram I am finding hard to

Hello I have an OS installation and data on a 40 gb drive that I would like to image to a 80 gb drive. I don't care if the resulting partition layout on the new drive is only 40 gb making me lose space. I just want to move everything from the older drive because I think it's failing. I have looked at partimage and mondo rescue as imaging solutions but both deal with partitions. CAn someone

I have been asked to build a Linux Installation lab. The lab has to support the installation of SUSE Enterprise 8, Red Hat (Industrial strength), Fedora, Debian and Mandrake and probably a couple of others. Here is the catch: 1. The machine(s) will only have a virtual floppy attached so installation will be via network (we?ll supply the mirror). 2. It must be completely automatic ? one floppy

Hi, I''ve created a domU in para-virtualization. But now I need to change it to full-virtualization. Is it possible to upgrade/change the VM virtualization mode without impact the OS+App in the VM? And How? Thanks, Jerry _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xen.org http://lists.xen.org/xen-users

Hello! Is it possible to load a virtual DOS Floppy with memdisk to do a few things (e.g. scan for viruses, copy a hard disk image from the network to the local disk) and continue booting from the local hard disk without a reboot? Cheers Alex

I have a Debian system from a Knoppix distribution. I started out with ext2 but decided to change to ext3. tune2fs -j OK. However the system boots with a warning ....ext3 mounted as ext2. proc/mounts confirms this and no journal is running. So I have to make an initrd. Did so using instructions in the Debian Reference and this did not change anything. Any attempt to use the img produced was a

Hello, Is it possible to test hardware with demo-livecd-3.0 to check about VT Support ? Regards, Thomas _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

Hi, I seem to remember that there used to be ISO downloads of Xen available, for people wanting to give it an easy way for a test drive, and to submit (automated) feedback on which machines and configurations Xen ran (in)correctly. However, I do not seem to be able to find these ISO images for download at Xen.org anymore. Has the project stopped making these useful test images - and if so, why ?

Is it possible to chain isolinux and memdisk over pxelinux? If it's possible, I'd like to boot a CD Image over the network. I've been using pxelinux to boot ltsp for years, and recently upgraded to take advantage of memdisk for booting a DOS hd-image. Ideally I'd be able to boot a CD-Image. Thoughts? -- <:3)~ Michael T.

Someone posted how to use a memory card (USB or another kind) to save settings between boots of a Live CD/DVD. I believe it was posted not too long ago and I thought I had kept the email, but now that I'm looking for the information, I can not find it. I've done some searching and I either get way too many hits or way too few, none of which are what I'm looking for. Does anyone

I'm considering the suggestion which was raised before about turning the debugging messages on by default in isolinux, or specifically, not building the non-debugging-messages version in the standard distribution. What do people think (especially distro maintainers?) -hpa

Okay, spending the time to dot t's and cross i's (or something like that), I think I have something now that can be called 3.00-worthy, so let's call it a release candidate. Changes over the earlier 3.00 prereleases: - -m and -a options now supported by the DOS installer. - PXELINUX now allows IP addresses, FQDNs, and truncated hostnames when specifying an alternate TFTP server

Hi, does anybody have a list of working Linux Live CDs with Xen Support which I can use in a Xen Domain? What I''m looking for is more or less something like Knoppix with Xen Support so that I can use the yet-not-supported hardware of my Ferrari 4005 in the Linux Domain regards Bernd This message posted from opensolaris.org
