Hi, there now i am booting pxelinux menu32 with 2 boot images 1. DOS boot image 2. Thinstaion pxelinux and my directory structure is like this (Pxelinux with menu32) /tftpdroot/pxelinux.0 /tftpdroot/pxelinux.cfg/default /tftpdroot/dos.imz (DOS bootimage) /tftpdroot/memdisk (memdisk package) (Thinstation Pxelinux) /tftpdrooot/pxe/pxelinux.0 /tftpdroot/pxe/initrd

I have tried to use isolinux 2.05, and I am running into a problem where it will not boot. I have previously used version 1.66, and the older version works just fine. Changing nothing except dropping the new version in does not work. Below is all of the relevant info, I believe. This occurs on multiple machines with different BIOS. I am currently in process of doing a binary search to find the

Hi All, We seem to have a strange problem with our NEC ML4 pcs. When using pxelinux to network boot, we are getting our menu (using menu.c32) when we choose a option the machine just locks up. If the option requires a password it shows the password box , I put in the password and then it locks up. But strangely the machine will boot from local disk which is an option on the boot menu. Our

We have a system that is designed with no VGA port, graphics card, or keyboard, only a serial console. We're trying to boot a Linux via ISOLINUX. The problem is that when ISOLINUX comes up, the screen is usually garbled. Not always; sometimes it's intact, sometimes it's completely blank. When it is garbled, it is NOT the garbled text of a wrong baud rate. Rather, it looks like

I am trying to boot a ramdisk on a usb stick in read-only mode using extlinux. When the system boots all I am getting is a blinking cursor. The stick booted with lilo, but I had some issues with lilo so I am trying extlinux. 1) I partitioned the stick as a linux partition, formated it ext2, and mounted /dev/sda1 on /mnt/flash. 2) I am running extlinux 3.86. 3) excuted "extlinux -i

I have an interesting situation where I am loading gpxelinux.0 v3.72 from pxelinux.0 ( older ). I have a stanza that I use after loading gpxelinux such as : --- label pxelinux.new kernel pxelinux.new.0 label recovery.http kernel http://kickstart/pxelinux.new/vmlinuz-ramdisk append initrd=http://kickstart/pxelinux.new/ramdisk.img.gz ramdisk_size=358400 ramdisk_blocksize=1024

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

Thank you for that. I?ve set up the thinstation-v5.6.1.iso in vm and setup the chroot. I did my first ./build ?allmodules and wrote the iso to usb using lili version 2.0 so that I can boot with older syslinux. I am doing this for the needed hardware profile to build from inside the vm however the usb has been stuck on the syslinux version line with a line following: Thinstation..... for 30 minutes

Hi! I have a particular need... I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask, but surely here there are people that can say me if it is feasible or not... I'm working for a thin-client distribution (thinstation.sf.net); I want to boot it from various media (netowork, cdrom, hd, usb key...), and at the moment syslinux/isolinux/pxelinux are doing it very well... The problem is that the

hi all got a windows 2008 server using samba as a primary domain controller. also got terminal services on the windows box for remote desktops, got some clients set up with thinstation to automatically connect to the terminal server with rdesktop. got a problem with logging on and off, its taking about 2 minutes to log in, "please wait for the user profile service", time increases if

It is possible to pass the IP address of a TFTP server to pxelinux config file. Scenario: I'm trying to network boot a thinstation image file (http://thinstation.sourceforge.net) via PXE. However, I'm using a DSL router as my DHCP server and Argon CMS (http://www.argontechnology.com/cms) as my PXE/TFTP server. When it initrd is execute and the network adapter is detected and TCP/IP

Not thinking about migrating back due to issues, it is more due to implementation needs and a little situation I have been wrestling with with for a bit now, and would love some feedback First a little history: We currently have 10 locations connected via a dedicated 1/2 T-1. Last year I migrated from a WINNT domain to a Samba/LDAP domain. It has been running great. Basically did this for

For posterity's sake, this problem was solved by removing the "serial" command and restoring "console" to the default of 1, thus completely relying on the BIOS console redirection instead of having ISOLINUX write to and read from the serial port. Thanks to Peter for his help a while back. -----Original Message----- From: Syslinux [mailto:syslinux-bounces at zytor.com] On

I'm having some fun with R on a Windows 2003 Server talking to a Wyse Winterm running Thinstation Linux. The Winterm boots Linux from the network and then runs rdesktop to a Dell 1750 server (dual 3G Xeon or somesuch). The first problem I noticed was that R (and the terminal) ground to a near halt during demo(graphics). Further investigation showed that it seemed to be due to having

Hi, I am thinking of settting up a thin client server setup. I would like to set it up to work with linux and windows. I was going to use Symbiont but it says it needs a different version of linux to install. Has anyone used it with Centos before? Would it be easier to just install LTSP and set it up. I would like to b have a small box that does the dhcp and then allows users to logon to

We're looking for what, years ago, I'd describe a s a X terminal -- something small, simple (and ideally cheap) that a user could display X applications on. I guess they're now called thin clients, but they now seem geared as seats on the web, and for this application we would need to be able display the results of running a homebrewed X application from a CentOS system, either

Is anyone doing this or has anyone tried? The thin clients are running WindowsCE, a browser, and 300mhz. They are Wyse units. I wonder if anyone has any practical advise or can recommend the best phone or method to load a stable softphone on one of these boxes? Thanks, Steve Totaro
