Hi all, I try to boot an msdos system using pxelinux and memdisk on my PC engines Wrap-2.c card and I have problems with it This is what I see: PXELINUX 3.11 Debian-2006-03-16 Copyright (C) 1994-2005 H.

Hello, I'm trying to boot a dos floppy stored on a disk image which is initially loaded over pxe using memdisk. I've created the disk image as follows: dd if=/dev/zero of=$IMGLOCATION/$IMGNAME bs=$(( 1024 * 1024 )) count=20 LOOPDEV=$(losetup --show -f $IMGLOCATION/$IMGNAME) MAJOR_MINOR=$(ls -l $LOOPDEV|awk '{print $5$6}'|sed 's/,/:/') DMSIZE=$(( $(ls -l

I am having this same issue... Has anyone resolved this? Thanks...

Hello all, I am using MSDOS client together with Samba version 3.020 running on a freebsd server version 4.8. I can write fromout this client with 1 Mbyte/min as maximum speed using GHOST. The CPU load from the freebsd server is nearly zero. When using Windows as system i can copy with a speed of 150Mbyte /min to the same Samba server. What must i check or change to get approx. the same speed

If 'msdos' filesystem is not compiled in Kernel (and I don't have the msdos.ko module neither), then syslinux refuses to work. Is it possible to fix syslinux to try more filesystems, not only msdos? Or is it possible to call the mount command somehow without filesystem option at all, so the kernel (or whatever) will decide itself what filesystem to use? Thank you for

I found that if I do not have a local floppy installed and enabled on my client, I will get the error 'Non-system disk' when I try to boot DOS floppy images. NT or Syslinux floppy images boot fine. If I enable the floppy in the BIOS, then it boots the DOS floppies just fine. Is this normal? Is there a workaround? There are MS-DOS images, so perhaps this is an MS-DOS limitation. --

I've been sitting in on this mailing list for a long while now, and I wanted to know, if there are any guide lines on getting a system to boot a DOS boot disk over the wire, ie, via PXE booting? I know this has been covered, and I am also googling for a site to help me out, but I thought I would ask anyway, so that I don't get lead astray. I have a thin client setup already up and

Hi! Windows Applications seem to run fine uder wine, but for any MSDOS-Application FILE, I get the following error: wine: can't exec 'FILE': invalid exe file Protocol error: process 0x806a100: partial recvmsg 0 for fd This happens regardless of winver/dosver (wine is called by 'wine --winver winxyz --dosver x.yz FILE'). What am I doing wrong? Do I need to start some kind of

Is anyone actively working on the dos emulation, or should I just start hacking away? -- Chuck Crayne ----------------------------------------------------------- ccrayne@crayne.org -----------------------------------------------------------

Hello, I am looking for the first time at setting up Linux with Samba as a primary server on our network. I would like to replace my SCO Unix system and a Windows box I use to serve MSDOS machines. The MSDOS server seems to be the stumbling block at this point in my research. I can only run netbEUI on them as far as I know and Samba seems to only talk on TCP/IP. Do you know of a solution?

I'm having trouble setting the DOS/Windows attribute flag "System" on Samba shared folders. The [Share] level setting "map system = yes" makes the Unix group execute bit be the "System" flag works fine on regular files, but not on directories. There is several ways to make files get the "hidden" attribute, but only way that I've found to set the

Running samba 1.9.16p11 on Digital Unix 3.2c. We currently access unix shares from W95 without problems but now since we had our network overhauled, 2 MSDOS harddriveless PC's need to be able to access the unix system for it's hard drive. They have Intel Express cards . How do I setup the MSDOS computer to map a drive to SAMBA. One question is these computers do not have IP addresses, how

I have many hp laptops that boot msdos with memdisk + pxelinux perfectly. However, I recently have the need to usb boot msdos with syslinux. And memdisk. When the dos Image loads I get "loading bootsector..." and then it halts. Sometimes I can get "starting ms-dos" but freezes as well. I'm trying to boot clean msdos floppy image created with winimage. I'm using

Hi, How are you! I built a PXE server of MSDOS in Linux server, client can boot from network and login MSDOS, but by default, the output console is VGA, My target client has not VGA port, it can only output from serial port, so could you help to tell me how to boot a MSDOS client from network and keep the PXE client output console is serial port ? Below is the PXE configure file?s

I am working on creating a program for some simulations I need to do and I want to execute a Perl script that I wrote using the system() command in R. I have spent a couple days trying to figure this out and it appears that my problem occurs when sending the perl script file path through R to MSDOS. I have tried using double backslashes, quotations, etc. Moving my files to the root directory with

Hi All, Here's an interesting one... I need to be able to connect smbclient on a linux machine to a dos based machine, which is running MSCLIENT and the WG1049 patch. I can browse to the machine and see all the files from Network Neighbourhood in Windows, but if I try and go in with: smbclient \\GAUGE1\C, or even just smbclient -L GAUGE1 all I get is: Added interface ip=10.0.1.1

Hello, I have a simple (?) simulation problem. I'm doing a simulation with logistic model and I want to reapet it 600 times. The simulation looks like this: z <- 0 x <- 0 y <- 0 aps <- 0 tiss <- 0 for (i in 1:500){ z[i] <- rbinom(1, 1, .6) x[i] <- rbinom(1, 1, .95) y[i] <- z[i]*x[i] if (y[i]==1) aps[i] <- rnorm(1,mean=13.4, sd=7.09) else aps[i] <-

Dear list: Thanks a lot for help. I have a question and I could not find clear answers easily. When we do logistic regression for one type of events of interest as a proportion of a broader types of events, does the logistic regression assume that the number of whole types of events should be independent with the number of type of interest? For example, if one type of events and the whole type

Hello, I am having a problem with Samba 3.0.4 and DOS clients. The MSDOS COPY command will not work on mapped directories. When I try to run the COPY command I get an "File not found" error message. This only happens on DOS, all other OS's work fine. I have noticed that someone else on this list has also run into this problem, but no answer/work-around is posted. Here is my

Hi, I'm doing a small hobby project writing some tools to put DOS boot images and Linux rescue images on a USB stick. For this I have partitioned my USB stick in 2 partitions, one 192MB partition with a VFAT filesystem (for the normal use) and a second partition with an ext3 filesystem. My aim was to provide a graphical menu (grub) to access the different images using memdisk. Since
