I have got a Solaris 9 package build from the latest tftp software at ftp.kernel.org. When I do the following: ./in.tftpd -l -s /tftpboot -m /tftprules -v The tftp server does not start. The error in /var/adm/messages is "too many -s directories". If i do ./in.tftpd -l -s /tftpboot -v then it works fine. But i need remap feature for my project. The message I get when i do

Good day, Just a quick question- could someone please confirm that this is the correct xinetd configuration (or not) for hpa-tftp? We've noticed that, when under moderate load hpa-tftpd resides in memory, even after there are no connections or even if xinetd is shut down. Under light load the server goes away after each connection, as desired. Thanks in advance! service tftp {

I performed an experiment in which I had dhcpd specify a named file ("foo") instead of one based on a client's MAC address. Lo and behold, the same problem occured. The PXE stack requested and was served the right file, the kernel loaded as did the initrd. But again, the boot sequence stopped at "Ready." Keep in mind that the contents of the file are the same as was in the

Hi, I have a tftp client which loads quite happily from a tftpd built from netkit-tftp-0.16 but which fails to load from from a tftpd built from tftp-hpa 0.29. In both cases, tftpd was built from pristine sources and run from xinetd under Redhat 7.3. [netkit-tftp-0.16 is the ancestor of tftp-hpa, predating HPA's maintenance of same] [the tftp client also.. .. fails with the prebuilt tftpd

We have some x86_64 systems that have DisplayPort and USB ports for a monitor & keyboard and when I use these to PXE boot, everything works fine. However, these systems will eventually become headless and in the production process access to the console will be via serial port. Using the serial port mostly works in that once we get to the PXE boot: prompt we can type in the name of the

Hi, I have a question on tftpd on Slackware - I know this is an embedded Linux forum, but I think it still must be the appropriate place to ask. I have hpa-tftpd V0.40 on Slackware 9.1. No matter what I do, I can't get files transferred to the tftp server. I just get timeouts - no messages in /var/log/messages or in /var/log/syslog - just dealthly silence. This is the configuration line

Hi, I just tried to boot my token ring devices with 2.05 - to no avail, it hangs after loading the kernel. I then tried older versions, and found 2.03 booting like a charm, and every 2.04-pre including 2.04 hanging. Here's the config of the devices: - Networkstation 2800 with IBM PCI Token Ring card 2 - IBM Thinkpad T21 with IBM PCI Token Ring card 2 Maybe this has to do with the changes

Hi, I've just played around with kbdmap in pxelinux. I always wondered why there was no translation for "AltGr"-Keys (the right 'Alt'-Key) (AltGr-Q generates "@" on a german keyboard e.g.), and I found in conio.inc (syslinux 1.76): getchar: [..] .kbd: xor ax,ax ; Get keyboard input int 16h and al,al jz .func_key mov bx,KbdMap ; Convert character sets

Dear all I have made some lattice graphs (bwplot(dead ~ treat | group,...). 'group' is a factor with three levels (Artemia larvae, Abalone larvae and Abalone spat), and the result is a graph with three panels corresponding to the levels in 'group', ordered in alphabetical order from bottom to top, as expected. How does one re-order the order in which the levels of

I downloaded nilo and oskit from www.nilo.org. Added pcnet32.c linux-2.0.39 driver to oskit. Compiled nilo with pcnet32 and produced boot floppy image. Use it inside vmware vm. My aim is to be able to test pxelinux using vmware+nilo and not a real machine. Floppy starts, detects nic, receives ip from dhcp server, requests boot image to tftpd-hpa, then crashes when talking to tftp. Is

Hello, I am using with success SYSLINUX-1.48 to boot a CD-Rom in order to realize an automatic installation of Linux. Actually all messages during the boot step are displayed on VGA screen. In the operational version, we have only a VT on COM1. I have tested to modified my syslinux.cfg like the following listing but boot messages are always displayed on VGA screen ! Can you help me, please ? (I

Hello! I would like to visualize the hospitalization within one year of several patients using a bar chart. For each patient the stay in a hospital should be illustrated with a dark colour a if there is a stay at home between 2 hopital stays, it should be illustrated with a bright colour. e.g. P1 |//////| |///| |////////| P2 |//////////| P3 |//|

Hi there, As I could not find a direct maintainer email address, I'm sending this to the mailing list. SysLinux, being a GPL product, is being sold under a very restrictive license without even offering the sources to the public. I've written up my findings here: http://www.palli.nl/~ivo/rdp/ Please have a look for yourself. Regards, Ivo Palli

Hi, I'm working on a Red Hat 7.3 based bootable cd. I have included a number of firmware update floppy images to it succesfully. However, I run into problems trying to build a floppy image for IBM ServerRAID firmware update. The firmware update disk set contains three disks. So their content does not fit into 1.44 nor 2.88 floppy images. To my understanding it possible to build a hard disk

Hi Peter, (at least I hope it is you, who gets this mail) I have a problem while booting over the netwoork using PXELINUX. When I use a initrd smaller or equal 16 MB, everything works fine, but when I increase the size, the system doesn't boot. In case of a 32 MB initrd (same content, just bigger), I get the error-message, that the system couldn't mount root. From 64 MB on, the system

Hello, I think I've found a bug in the C function do_grep located in src/main/grep.c. It seems to affect both the latest revisions of R-2-13-branch and trunk when compiling R without optimizations and with it's own version of pcre located in src/extra, at least on ubuntu 10.04. According to the pcre_exec API (I presume the later versions), the ovecsize argument must be a multiple of 3 ,

I would like to be able to create a 2.88MB bootable floppy image to hold the kernel and initrd -- will be used for automated install. In various newsgroups there have been many posting attempting to describe how to achieve this, but none of them is complete. Can syslinux be used to achieve this? What about memdisk? Thank you in advance. Fet

I'm reading the docs accompanying SYSLINUX where it says:- ++++ CREATING A BOOTABLE LINUX FLOPPY +++ In order to create a bootable Linux floppy using SYSLINUX, prepare a normal MS-DOS formatted floppy. Copy one or more Linux kernel files to it, then execute the DOS command: syslinux [-s] a: Now before I run this program, I'd like to know which 'one or more Linux
