similar to: SYSLINUX 3.08-pre10, including "bigraw" support

hi, i've tested with 2 version of awdflash and uniflash: here the results: it only worked with freedos, not with win98 dos; with win98 the images were not bootable; but that does not matter; freedos is ok. awdflash 8.27.45: flash ok awdflash 8.27.41 (uses protected mode): flash ok uniflash 1.40: when starting flashing the program freeze. awdflash 8.27.45 never worked before so i think this

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

Okay, the serial port feature in 3.11-pre9 was of course completely broken (I seem to have bad luck with -pre9's :)... a 3.11-pre10 is now available, and it does seem to have a more reliable handling of arrow keys ... *but not perfect*. There simply is no way to reliably detect both [Esc] and arrow keys on existing serial consoles. -hpa

I have just pushed out Syslinux 3.81-pre10. This fixes some pretty serious bugs, including the fact that, apparently, isohybrid didn't work at all in CBIOS mode. Unfortunately it means that the isohybrid handover protocol has changed, and so a new isolinux.bin isn't compatible with an old isohybrid or vice versa (as a result, the magic number has changed.) -hpa

Hi, I'm trying to boot Feature Tool 2.08 (free download from http://www.hitachigst.com/hdd/support/download.htm) from a pen drive via memdisk.

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

Hello everyone, I have just released SYSLINUX 3.52, being functionally identical to 3.52-pre10. Changes in 3.52: * Handle capitalized F-key commands in the menu system. * Fix padding error when loading multiple ramdisks. * Workaround for VMware crashing when trying to print a message during early kernel boot (does not seem to work, consider deleting.)

using simple menu and a timeout, and no menu default; if I choose forex the 3rd boot-target, but dont hit return, it will timeout, and reset the selection to thte 1st (default) boot target. another timeout, and it boots that 1st target. it seems more appropriate to either a. end the timeout, and just wait for the user (grub, lilo do this iirc) b. boot the manually selected target when timeout

I have put out a 2.07-pre10; this version recognizes vendor-encapsulated (a.k.a. vendor-option-space) PXELINUX options as well as unencapsulated (a.k.a. site-option-space) PXELINUX options. Please try it out... I'd like to release 2.07 no later than Monday. ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/boot/syslinux/Testing/ -hpa

Ok, despite what I said yesterday I decided to release a 2.08-pre10. The only difference over 2.08-pre9 is that I have added a small program in the "samples" directory called chain.c32. This allows chainbooting local floppies and hard disks: chain fd0 ; Chainboot the first floppy drive chain hd0 ; Chainboot the first hard drive chain hd1 3 ; Chainboot partition 3 on the second

I have pushed out SYSLINUX 3.10-pre10 with the fix for Arwin's bug. Still no idea about the bug reported by Curtis Doty. Pending issues before 3.10: - Need for forward-port EBIOS changes from SYSLINUX to EXTLINUX; - Verify EXTLINUX functionality on Supermicro systems; - Try to make some head or tail out of menu.c32 hang, if at all possible; - NOESCAPE. - Curtis' bug (garbage at end of

Hi all, I've finally gotten around to actually implement the long-discussed TEXT HELP feature. Try it out, please; it's in 3.40-pre10. -hpa

I've begun tinkering with syslinux v3 and have uncovered an anomoly with the DISPLAY file when called by pxelinux.0. If I have: DISPLAY boot.msg With an "^Xsplash.lss\n" in the file boot.msg (exactly: 18 73 70 6C 61 73 68 2E 6C 73 73 0A) file, it will fail to load the rle image. And produce some goofy results in the tftpd log: Jun 5 06:27:06 pxe in.tftpd[24649]: RRQ from

Hi, In the man page for vector(): length: A non-negative integer specifying the desired length. Double values will be coerced to integer: supplying an argument of length other than one is an error. Since long vectors are supported, it doesn't seem to be true anymore that "double values will be coerced to integer": > bigraw <-

Hey, I just wanted to mention that the same problem still exists for me in version 3.09, altough the changelog mentions: Reduce the command line to 511 characters; 1023 caused memory overflows. Was this meant to be a solution for this problem, or does this entry of the changelog apply to another bug? thx, marco >Yesterday Curtis Doty said: > > > >>I've begun

I just tested 6.02-pre10 version. ? On physsical machine it is booting ok now,?but chain.c32 result is the same errors :? ERR: Primary partition (in MBR) with invalid offset and/or length. ? ERR: Cant't find myself on the drive I booted from Adding 'relax' option to chain.c32 invocation resolves the problem. ? In qemu the boot and chaining works ok (without 'relax' option).

hi, - big and ugly mail. If you don't like them, delete it now :-) - I have collected and classified some information of: http://home.earthlink.net/~rwhron/kernel/bigbox.html And I observed that ext3 performance is worse than previous kernels(2.4.19...). -ac and -aa are here only as reference.

Hi. I'm working on replacing a PXELINUX/MEMDISK loaded DOS based installation image with a PXELINUX/MEMDISK loaded WinPE ISO image. So far everything seems to work well (appending "bigraw" to memdisk solved booting problems on several machines), but I kind of miss the option of using getargs.com to get/set environment variables from the memdisk command line. Is there any way to
