similar to: Booting another isolinux.bin with isolinux

Hi, some time ago I tried to boot an isolinux boot loader from another one to be able to boot e.g. a Knoppix CD with its original boot loader and menus from a "main" isolinux on a multiboot DVD. This works for isolinux <= 3.07 now! However, newer isolinux boot loaders have some problems and the isolinux (e.g. of the Knoppix CD) loaded from the multiboot DVD's main isolinux

Hi, some time ago I asked if it is possible to boot one isolinux from another one. The reason: I tried to integrate a SuSE Live DVD on a multiboot DVD, but SuSE uses a modified version of isolinux. I tried the following: 1. I copied the isolinux stuff from the SuSE DVD to /boot/suselive. 2. I edited isolinux.bin and substituted "/boot/isolinux" by "/boot/ suselinux" 3. I

This version contains a fix to mbr.asm, plus a version of Murali's menu system, but ported to gcc. Although gcc produces much bigger 16-bit code (since it's really 32-bit code with prefixes) I figured it would be much easier for people to deal with since it requires the configuration to be compiled in. That being said, it's a *very* powerful menu system, partially *because*

Hello everyone, I have pushed out SYSLINUX 3.08. It's identical in all but version number to 3.08-pre11. Sorry for everything that probably should have been done that didn't make it, but I simply haven't had time :( :( :( However, given several bugs fixed in 3.08, this seemed important... Changes in 3.08: * SYSLINUX: Fix performance regression (-s mode always

Ok, this is crazy, but I have a livedvd I created with fedora-8's syslinux-3.36-7.fc8 and when I boot under qemu ( -boot d -cdrom /dev/dvd) it boots just fine, but when I boot it on the actual hardware (vaio vgn-n250e), the kernel cmdline gets truncated at about the 99th character, causing problems. The same exact physical livedvd booted on a different box does not get truncated. The

HPA, I believe that support to boot windows CD bootsectors was broken in 3.05. I have tested 2.13, 3.00, 3.02, 3.05, 3.06, 3.08, 3.11, and 3.20pre6. All versions >= 3.05 are broken. All versions <= 3.02 work fine with the same config. The error message I get is: ================================================================ IOSLINUX 3.20 3.20-pre6 Copyright (C) 1994-2005 H.

Is it possible to have a isolinux based boot CD, where one of the options is to boot off the network. This would mean, 1. The kernel that one boots into is on the network and not on the CD. So easy to make changes. 2. One does not need a 'PXE enabled' network card. - Murali

I've been working with Matt Burgess here on this problem, and have found the following: syslinux 3.08-pre10 ? broken >>> config.inc:max_cmd_len=255 syslinux 3.08-pre11 ? works >>> config.inc:max_cmd_len=1023 syslinux 3.08 ? works >>> config.inc:max_cmd_len=1023 syslinux 3.09-pre1 ? works >>> config.inc:max_cmd_len=1023 syslinux 3.09-pre2 ? broken

Hi all, I need some suggestions or hints which syslinux version I shall use. The main focus will be on PXE boot. I have to upgrade due to (expected) performance problems (tftp), so I will swich to HTTP boot ! existing system: - syslinux version 4.05 (tftp only) - used modules : pxelinux.0, memdisk, vesamenuc32, patched startrom.0 - I boot .nbi , .iso, .ima and sometimes files (clonezilla etc.) -

hpa etal, Im trying to get PIRT running on an SBC which has no CD-ROM drive. (an 8 MB ISO which demo's RTAI - RealTime Application Interface, on linux patched with Adeos) (BTW, PIRT uses isolinux) anyway, Im trying to use pxelinux to chainload / memdisk / mboot it, Im having no success. Ive also tried booting memtest86, which I can boot on my laptop using grub, ie title memtest

I used to use multiple syslinux floppy images to implement what I call CD-ROM-multiboot (EL Torito supports up to 64 bootable images, Award BIOS 8 images, if not wrey old). Now that floppies are getting too small, I find that I must find a workaround for hard coded isolinux directory name in isolinux. Not a big deal, but there might be also others who would like to have multiboot feature. --

Hello I'm working on my RIS server; I got a problem when I use pxelinux.0 to load setupldr.exe from windows XP 32bits (both home and corporate) Here is how I configure a working server, then how to modify it to reproduce the bug: ========================= I suppose you got -a dhcp server configured to load pxelinux.0 to client computer. -a working tftp server (mine is tftpd-hpa, with a rule

Hi, I'm Florent BERANGER, from Flonix ( http://www.flonix.com ). After several tests, we have found that Syslinux 3.00 pre9 is no longer compatible with USB stick booting. Syslinux 2.13 works fine with this feature. Error infos : Syslinux 3.00 pre9 only displays its version and a new line with a "a" character and then hangs. Tests configuration : Syslinux applied from : Linux

I have a small problem with my COM32 image. It is more related to how the COM32 images get their arguments. Here are the relavent parts of my isolinux.cfg ----- # default image = defimg default defimg # Boot automatically after 5 seconds timeout 50 # By default auto select image. If no autoselect list # found, then boot into prep label defimg kernel readker.c32 append prep
