similar to: Trying to figure out why my Cruzer Micro 512"MB" won't boot.

I've run into a rather odd problem. It seems that I can format and make bootable CF/SD cards and USB Flashdrives under Windows 98SE and MS-DOS 6.22 that will boot to a A: prompt on my system. But when I try making the same CF/SD cards and USB Flashdrives bootable under linux using syslinux I get nothing, not even a error message. It's like the syslinux bootloader doesn't even

I recently got a cheap PenDrive iVO which I'll be the first to admit is anything but perfect, but, a pretty decent player considering it's cost is that of the other players with half the memory. One of the things I was looking forward to was having a great bootable flashdrive with my favorite linux rescue image and a few other diagnostic/repair things. Unfortunately, since I tried to put

Hi there guys! I want to set up Puppy-Linux to run off a 2GB USB key-drive in native mode (I.e. not as a virtual machine, which I'm finding runs too slow on my system, under XP.) To test it out, I want to run off a 150GB USB HDD. Now this drive is NTFS formatted and way bigger than the 1GB file structure limit that I read about in the Syslinux documentation. There's only one

Greets, Ummmmm never had one b4... picked up a new 4 Gig SanDisk Cruzer Micro USB 2.0 Flash Drive to play with. Dunno if I will keep it or not. I am mostly interested in using it with CentOS of course. Ummmmm it comes with like 120 meg of non linux apps and stuff on it. Can I dust that garbage and just reformat this unit to boot with CentOS or?? Been around for a long time, know google

Hi, Our current PBX (Panasonic) has a setting that enables users to "snatch" calls ringing at other extensions. I'm not sure snatching is a correct term for this so let me elaborate. Let's say you sit in a room with five other people. Each one has it's own extension. One person goes out. As soon as he leaves the room his phone starts ringing. The other guys in

I have some concerns about the Syslinux boot process, which I'm now investigating in connection with my work on booting Live-CD images from USB flashdrives. Some of these are related to what seems to be inadequate documentation, but I think that there are also aspects of Syslinux operation which could be fairly easily improved. quoting from the official documentation: Since version 5.00,

Hi All, On my gateway server I'm Installing CentOS on a flashdrive. is that a bad idea? the server keep hang, I can ping the server from the LAN and from the internet, the internet connection from LAN to internet is OK but another service is down, ssh, VPN (PPTPD) and another service. Even the console is unresponsive so I have to reset the server. Last time when I still can do SSH to server

This is a quick recovery and fix for the machines rendered unbootable after the grub2/shim yum update. It is written for CentOS 8.2.2004 but similar should work for any CentOS 8 or 7 as long as you get the correct shim file, that is, the one from the latest installation media. I am running on an x86_64 architecture (see uname -i). Please use the correct shim file for your architecture

Hi list! I'm trying to use call files to place outgoing calls. I want to schedule an outbound call and want it to ring on my sip phone. My sip phone is SIP/228 and the call should go out according to the LCR rules as defined in the dialplan. I don't mind waiting for the call to be answered on my phone so I don't need the functionality that my phone will ring only when the call is

Hello all-- These instructions are somewhat OK but my messed up box is the only one I've got basically to help with this problem. Where can we find "correction" instructions using a "rescue" CD or flash drive? I understand RedHat provided detailed instructions to supported customers. Thanks. _______________________ Sent from MzK's phone. ---------- Forwarded message

I have recently gotten back into making a games with gamemaker. I had a big game that I didn't finish on my old computer running Windows XP. But then my stupid sister dropped my laptop done the stairs. That was about 2 months ago, and I got a new laptop running OSX because my parents hate Windows (while I love it). I was looking through a flashdrive with my stuff from my old laptop on it

So, I got my wife a Nook for her b'day. I just plugged it into my system, CentOS 6.5, and what I see is /media/NOOK, and it shows 257k or so - yes, k, not m or g. It's *not* seeing any directories, etc, and the small thing I'm guessing is firmware, since even when I try mount -o remount -rw, it is still r/o. Googling, I see mentions of fsmtp, I think it was, and yum shows some mtp

Hello, Im trying to learn syslinux and want to create a multiboot flashdrive, which will have more than one liveCD available for booting. I've installed a simple live cd (secure linux live cd disk#1) to my Fat32 partition. It boots well. Now i want to add another live CD (geexbox disk#2) to boot from the same Fat32 partition. I need to copy some files from live cd (geexbox) and add them

Hello, I am testing Syslinux-6.01 booting with efi64 from usb flashdrive. Using the config listed below, the kernel and initrd are loaded, but hang right after with no error messages. The flashdrive is partitioned with two partitions; the first is efi system partition marked 0xef00 in gdisk (gpt-fdisk) and is formated fat32; the second partition is formated ext2 but remains empty at this
