Hello, many of our platforms do not have a integrated floppy, some even don''t have a floppy controller. As pxelinux still has a problem with machines without a floppy in combination with some bios versions I need to chainload a different bootstrap loader which works on the floppyless platforms. But I also need to load a BartPE and the other BS loader does not support that. So I tried to

Still trying to make my VMs appear on a subnet of their very own and route traffic to/from them from the Dom0. This network-multinet script sounds ideal for what I want: http://thepenguinpriest.com/linux/scripts/network-multinet.html However, the description of building a routed network says I need to call the script and give it the "virtual ethernet device (vethX)" that lives in

Hello list, any try the new memtest86 v3.2 with isolinux 3.11 cd and pxeboot? How is the proper way to chainload memtest86 I was tried: label memtest kernel memtest.bin but, nothing happens just a weird hang (my older versions of memtest hangs too). Anyway chainloading in a floppy image with memdisk on CD or pxeboot was fine but if I use memory to emulate a floppy I was not using this memory

I send to the list the perl script to make the inverse of sys2ansi.pl and convert any ansi file to syslinux format. I recommend jave editor to deal with ascii arts and ascii fonts www.jave.de and for painting colours over the ascii file, the ansieditor from http://www.win.ua.ac.be/~wschrep/ansied/ with the patch attached for import and export to syslinux directly and for colour paint mode to

I am not certain that this is the right place to post this, but maybe some kind soul can point me in the right direction if not. And I apologize if this is the wrong spot...The reason I posted here is that I recall running across a syslinux changlog that said "..added support for reading .spl..." files. I want to customize the suse boot up splash screens (for a CD install). I have been

Can someone point me to instructions on how to build a pxeboot/initrd.img with updated drivers. I would like to pxe boot and install rh8 on a newer machine, and the pxeboot files that come with rh8 (2.4.20-8) don't support my e1000 NIC. I believe that the newer 2.4.20-28.8 drivers will, but I'm having trouble finding instructions in rebuilding the pxeboot initrd.img + vmlinuz to

I researched on Archive, but the instruction says to copy startrom.com to startrom.0, so I changed boot program to startrom.0 instead of pxelinux.0, it gives me a TFTP error saying file not found. then I keep startrom.0, change boot program back to pxelinux.0, then I do not see F12 key and boot directly to PXE. then I change the boot program to startrom.com it asked me to press F12, but can

Hi, I try to get networking running with xen 3.2, but it seems I fail miserably. I am on sles10sp1, with xen 3.2.0, and kernel rpm''s installed from SP2. I configured in /etc/sysconfig/network the NETWORK_LIST: NETWORK_LIST="bridge,0,default,00:DE:AD:BE:EF,192.168.8.13/24,dhcp-off" but an ifconfig xenbr0 still shows the mac address of peth0 fe:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff. Initially, I

This is really OT, I got jave to paint some prety Ascii Fonts on my terminal server message file, But I'm not able to find out a simple way to paint ansi coulors than escaping and check a table segment by segment. ?Wich editor you use to use if any?

Greetings, We found out today that rsync has been missing some files. Here is the senerio: We have two nfs servers in different datacenters, one being the backup to the other. We want to keep them up to date so we use rsync inside crontabs. We have Solaris, AIX, True64 and VMS systems reading and writing to the nfs drives. I am running rsync on Solaris 8 servers. What

I am trying to find source/object files for Samba for OpenVMS using Multinet 5.0. Install guide would also be helpful. Currently run Samba on Unix. Thanks

I apologize for the long delay in testing this. I can only reproduce the problem on fancy new laptops, and those do not stay in my hands for very long. As you may recall, certain floppyless laptops have a BIOS bug which prevented them from working with MEMDISK. Around a month ago, Robert Wruck contributed workaround patches, and hpa included a modified version of them in 2.07-pre1. He asked

Hello list, I'm having problems with newest BIOS updates from Gigabyte to my Mother Boards, they don't want to boot syslinux, extlinux y usb-hdd mode. Then I need to know if someone else are having same problem, and can send me the Mother Board versions and bios versions to report as a bios bug. this is from the support, I'm awaiting for answer.

Hi, I have boon Googling quite a bit on this, but is it possible: I want to build an ISOLINUX boot CD, but want one of the option to be "Continue booting from hard drive" and thus disregard booting from the kernel on the CD. Is it possible? Or what can I do to force a HD boot from ISOLINUX.CFG? Thanks Herman Starship Systems

Hello all, Forgive me if this has been asked before, I've been googling for two days now and the only thing that I've learned is that bootsplash is a total black art. I'm booting off of a USB stick and I've finally gotten a splash screen to appear before vmlinuz and initrd load, but once they load the splash screen scrolls off the screen. Is there any way to make it behave and

Hi I am an engineer who is making communication systems. I have a board(made by Kontron ltd, Intel CPU, currently with diskless ) that is used in compactPCI. I boot that board with network PXELINUX method and currently using NFS. But I don't want to use NFS and I want to make and use ram disk image. That means I want to use a ram disk as /. Currently I made a initrd by ltsp_initrd_kit. What

I'm having a problem booting Slackware 10.1 boot CD's as well as an isolinux image of my own. The system is a VIA Epia M10000 and the drive is an AOpen ISU-8424E CD/DVD writer. If I use a Toshiba CD-RW/DVD-ROM Drive SD-R2612 in place of the AOpen DVD writer, the cd boots fine and everything works as expected. What's the best course for further debugging of this problem?
