similar to: SYSLINUX 3.10-pre3

My apologies if this is no longer an issue or has been resolved in some other manner. It was quicker for me to simply do some quick hacking than to research more fully. Regarding this message from Feb 2005: >>> Did you make progress with ethersel.c32? >>> Is there anything I can do to help? >>> >> >> I've been out of town. If you could sprinkle some

This version cleans up the Ethersel (PCI config probing) changes I have been iterating with Alex Heinz. It's not the same code (so please test, especially Alex), but it should work the same. As before, if you have a machine for which 2.13 worked and 3.0x hasn't worked, please test this version too. http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/boot/syslinux/Testing/ -hpa

Changes in 3.10: * gcc 4.0.1 compilation fixes. * Add support for querying the PCI BIOS in libcom32 (used by ethersel et al.) * Fix PCI handing (ethersel etc) on several old chipsets (and VMWare.) * Try to deal with systems with broken EBIOS. * New API call to do "localboot". * New API call to query features.

Hello! ethersel.c32 does not seem to work with all PCs. I have prepared a floppy that uses ethersel.c32 to load a NIC-specific file (etherboot .zlilo image). See http://etherboot.anadex.de for details. It works with every NIC and every PC I own, but not with VMWare. I know VMWare has some problems, so that did not bother me at all and I published it anyway but I have received several e-mails

I just pushed out SYSLINUX 3.73-pre3. The only significant difference over -pre2 was changing MEMDISK to use "safeint" by default. -hpa

Hello! I have been successful using SYSLINUX and Etherboot to create a generic "PXE-on-a-disk" package, a floppy image and CD image that support as many Ethernet cards as possible. These have support for all of Etherboot's modules that support real PCI cards: about 25-or-so drivers and 250-or-so cards. I've built Etherboot ZLILO images, one for each driver, set up to boot

Tying up lose ends, and adding the ethersel module for the Etherboot folks. -hpa Changes in 3.02: * SYSLINUX: The "unix" installer now sets the MS-DOS attributes (hidden, system, readonly.) * COM32 library: build the .lnx (test modules for running under Linux) as architecture native modules, in case i386 devel libraries aren't

This is a minor tweak on 3.11-pre2. If nothing new comes up, I will release this as 3.11 probably early next week. -hpa

Folks, I've just pushed out another prerelease for the 5.00 branch. The idea behind this -pre was to merge in the final 4.06 release. I'm aiming for a final 5.00 release next week, but as we saw with the 4.06 branch, anything can happen and these deadlines can get pushed backwards. Please, test if you can. One thing that is going to happen next week is a Syslinux-6.00-pre1, which will

From : Erwan Velu <erwan.velu at free.fr> This patch - remove the pci detection code from ethersel - add a find_pci_device() function in the PCI com32 module - make ethersel using the pci com32 module instead of builtin pci detection code Testing and feedback are welcome.

Got the following trying to build git master: gcc -std=gnu99 -m32 -fno-stack-protector -mregparm=3 -DREGPARM=3 -march=i386 -Os -W -Wall -march=i386 -fomit-frame-pointer -D__COM32__ -nostdinc -iwithprefix include -I../../com32/libutil/include -I../../com32/include -c -o chain.o chain.c ld -m elf_i386 -T ../../com32/lib/com32.ld -o chain.elf chain.o ../../com32/libutil/libutil_com.a

After thinking a bit of the multi-file support in 3.31-pre1, and considering a few users' feedback on the subject, I have made a couple of changes: 1. The dummy filename ~ can be used to mean "the main config file". 2. There is a MENU INCLUDE directive now. -hpa

Hi all, I have pushed out one more 4.03 prerelease; please help checking or testing it as I'm about to push a 4.03 out really soon. -hpa -- H. Peter Anvin, Intel Open Source Technology Center I work for Intel. I don't speak on their behalf.

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

I just uploaded SYSLINUX 3.72-pre7. I'm hoping this will be the final 3.72 prerelease. Please test it and holler if something is (still) broken. -hpa

Hi, I've just pushed out a last -pre release before 4.06 final. The purpose of this prerelease was to make sure that all the build infrastructure is configured correctly and to ensure that the win installer problem is now gone (I've done the build on an F16 machine which should have a working mingw toolchain). Barring any major problems I'll do the final release this week. -- Matt
