Hi, I'm working on making an USB flash disk bootable and have succeeded in booting Linux using syslinux from disk in USB-HDD mode. Is there a way to do it in USB-FDD mode, possibly also using syslinux as a bootloader?

Using Xen 4.2 unstable rev. 25483. I get errors like this: pt_pci_read_config: [00:10:0] Error: Failed to read register with offset exceeding FFh. [Offset:ffh][Length:1] in my qemu log for a domU with some devices passed through to it. I investigated and found that at hw/pass-through.c line 1717

This patch allows a core to go to deeper C states

Could anyone summarize what the support status of cpu frequency changes is at present. I don''t seem to recall generic changes to the hpyervisor in that respect, but the linux tree has fairly extensive changes to the powernow-k8 driver (which would make sense to me only if all other cpufreq drivers are fully supported now, too). Thanks, Jan

I am using memdisk to remotely flash the BIOS and other firmware. It works well for most flash programs. After the flash I need to initialize the NIC to send a signal to my management server that the flash is complete. I am curious as to how others have solved this problem. Thanks.

There''re basically two methods to enter a given C-state: legacy (hlt + I/O read), and native(using mwait). MWAIT is always preferred when both underlying CPU and OS support, which is a more efficient way to conduct C-state transition. Xen PM relies on Dom0 to parse ACPI Cx/Px information, which involves one step to notify BIOS about a set of capabilities supported by OSPM. One capability

Hi, I am running OS X Snow Leopard on the 'sender' side and Linux (2.6.32, possibly fedora but unsure) on the 'receiver' side. Both with rsync 3.0.9.

I'm not aware of any official maintainers but supposedly the gstreamer guys (http://gstreamer.sf.net) have a spec file for it. I am going to look into it in the next couple of days but when 1.0 comes out I'm sure RPMs will pop up pretty quickly. Josh __________________________________________________

I often boot DOS using MEMDISK and 33MB HD images for remote flashing. After my flash I need to activate the NIC and send a signal. Currently I use different packet drivers for different NICs, but this link below looks like a universal solution: http://www.emboot.com/products_UniversalPacketDriver.htm Does any thing else like this exist that is open source or freely available and freely

Can anyone please tell me how to create a bootable 10MB hard disk image for use with memdisk? I'd like to use FreeDOS. And I know little of DOS. Thanks.

I just saw your post and I would definitely be interested in an 8 MB DOS images to work with pxelinux.

Hi, I''m a bit of a beginner at this and I''m having some problems with installation, hopefully someone can help.

I think my rails app has a slow memory leak that degrades performance over the course of several days. I''d like to get to the bottom of it but in the meantime I''d prefer to just bandage it and force the fcgi library to start a new instance of my app every so often. Is there a clean way to do this?

Hi, I found it a while ago, an add-on to Rails for supporting movable select boxes, but I searched through the wiki and the mailing list and couldnt find what I was looking for. I was hoping someone might know of or remember something about the project. Thanks, Dylan.

Whilst looking at the 3.61 isolinux.asm file I noticed that the code uses a spec buffer size of 13h for the initial BIOS call with the drive number passed in in DL. It then uses a spec buffer size of 13 when scanning drive numbers from FFh to 81h Line 291 is mov byte [spec_packet],13h Lines 576 to 577 are mov si,spec_packet mov byte [si],13

Can someone point me to instructions on booting BartPE with pxelinux.0 over the network. Thanks.

How does one make a HD image? Floppy images are easy enough, but to have to create a hdimage, you need MBR and partitions, etc... I want to create a 10MB DOS HD and boot it, how would I do this with Linux? Thanks.

memdisk fails to boot HD image, if the system does not have an HD. Has any seen this? Is there a solution? memdisk output: Disk is hard disk, 9216 K, C/H/S = 9/64/32 Total size needed = 2063 bytes, allocating 3K Old dos memory at 0x9dc00 (map says 0x9dc00), loading at 0x9d000 INT 13 08: Failure, assuming this is the only driveold: int13 = f000799a int15 = f000f859 new: int13 = 9d000008 int15
