similar to: Isolinux freezes loading configuration file - fixed in 3.08-pre11.

This test release includes the Multiboot support from Tim Deegan, and increases the command line limit to 1023 characters. This is a 3.08 release candidate, so if you have a chance, please test it out. ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/boot/syslinux/Testing/ -hpa

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

Tried both normal and debug images with Roxio 6 and Nero 6.6. Everything worked fine. Also tried cdrwin and ran into an interesting issue with it regarding it's support of image files >8k -- reported it to them. FYI, tried booting on 2 Intel and 2 Asus planars all reported no info returned in the spec packet. David >Okay, after a bit more research I ended up implementing 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

Hey folks, I was trying the complex menu from the lastest pxelinux 3.20-pre11. It did install a password file in the /isolinux/ of my tftpserver. Then I try to authentificate myself as user3 with as password I've been tranforming using sha1pass. When I select login, the screen blink and doesn't ask me anything. I reslect login, it ask me for a username. I give user3 and then my

Hi All, I've got a simple isolinux cd loading a floppy image via memdisk, that boots reliably on 14 of 15 platforms, but intermittently hangs on one and, unfortunately, I can't substitute the platform. The behavior is weird. If I cold boot the system with the CD already in the drive, it *usually* boots to completion. Warm boots are hit-or-miss. If there's any drive door action

I have released SYSLINUX 2.08-pre11. It is the same as 2.08-pre10 except I have added logical partition support to the chainbooting module (still no partition hiding or anything like that.) Unfortunately I have no way to test this at the moment, so I thought I'd release a -pre11 and see if someone was willing to take it for a spin.

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

I ended up implementing the "totaltimeout" command per discussion on the SYSLINUX mailing list, and adjusted the timeout of the menu system accordingly. The necessary restructuring really wasn't too painful with judicious use of longjmp() and subroutines -- basically poor man's exception handling. Thus, I have released 3.11-pre11; barring no objections or problems I will

Hi all, I have released SYSLINUX 2.09-pre11; the only difference is Murali's latest patches for the menu system, mostly to add the ability to add separators to the menus. ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/boot/syslinux/Testing/ Please test it out. Some time over the weekend I'm going to do a sweep for bug fixes I've forgotten and otherwise I'd like to release 2.09 next

Hi all, I have decided to declare 2.12-pre11 a release candidate. I'd appreciate any and all testing anyone can do on this version. Hopefully the "2.20" rewrite of the FAT-based SYSLINUX will come not too long thereafter. ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/boot/syslinux/Testing/ -hpa

I have just pushed out SYSLINUX 3.10-pre11. This version hopefully should fix Curtis' bug (display file garbage) as well as the NOESCAPE problem. Curtis, Alex and Paul, could you try this version out, please? -hpa

Im trying to use newer simple-menu features, and have found that the following config-file (closely based on wiki pxelinux example) - fails for 3.62-pre11, - works for 3.62-pre10 where 'working' is successive reloads such that re-edits of file are seen on next reload and broken is issuing this error: Initial menu has no LABEL entries! boot: #>

While attempting to work on implementing readdir in ISOLINUX, I made it large enough that it overflowed for isolinux-debug. $ make all nasm -O9999 -f elf -g -F stabs -DDATE_STR="'pre11-112-g930881b*'" \ -DHEXDATE="0x49caaf5b" \ -l isolinux.lsr -o isolinux.o isolinux.asm ld -m elf_i386 -T syslinux.ld -M -o isolinux.elf isolinux.o >

<..trying again after changing outgoing e-mail options to avoid bad headers...> I'm trying to use syslinux 3.08-pre11 on a Gateway E4000 with the (sample) config file below, and the ramdisk images fail to boot if selected as a menu option, but do boot if I press ESC and type the command line manually. The two options are for the same floppy image, but the first is compressed, the

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, I previously had extlinux 3.07 booting off a VMWare SCSI disk fine. After upgrading to 3.08, the system seem to hang after the EXTLINUX welcome/copyright message, even before the boot: prompt appears. Verified that downgrading back to 3.07 is fine, re-upgrading to 3.08 hangs again. Any ideas what might be wrong? Thanks. Regards, .lzs -- Lai Zit Seng http://pobox.com/~lzs/

I found that the version of isolinux.bin (and the debug version too) doesn't work on my Via C3 system. I get the SAY text, but never the boot: prompt. C-A-Del doesn't reboot either. The debug version does not print anything after announcing it's opening the config file. Only the single SAY text follows. The cursor sits on the next blank line, useless (no responses to key presses).
