Hi, I'm sorry to bring this up again but I can't quit get this too work. I'm trying to build a 2.88 floppy image so that I can use PXE to load Ghost. I'm useing the following to get a copy of the bootsector: dd if=/dev/fd0 of=bootblock bs=512 count=1 Then I build the image file with: mformat -C -t 160 -s 18 -h 2 -B bootblock x: Then use mcopy to put the required

Hello, I am using syslinux 3.63 and I am trying to get an image file going for ghost. I was able to get the unicast image working by using winimage and creating the format for the image as 2.88mb and saving the boot sector as win 95/98. I tried the same thing with a ghost multicast image and it doesn't work, says invalid system disk.. Lots are variables so I am not sure where

Hi, I am trying to create an image that is larger than 1.44MB to be used with PXE boot (Ghost 8 requires 2 floppys).

Hello, I am managing 15 separate boot disks with various network disk images. These disk images are used for network installs of Windows OS's. Basically the network boot disk contains dos, the network drive in question and the connection information to the shared server for doing a ghost install. The problem is the 1.44 disk doesn't hold enough space to accomplish the job. What I

Hallo, I try to boot the windows 98 bootdisk via memdisk. It doesn't work completely. Booting a freedos FD image works, booting the windows 98 image works too. But the windows 98 boot disk then should extract the file "ebd.cab" with the file "extract.com", and that step fails. Is that a syslinux problem or a windows problem? Viele Gruesse! Helmut

Has anyone had a problem with afud408 (Award flash program) freezing the system when ran from memdisk? The freeze occurs when just running afud408 (not attempting to update bios, although it freezes then as well.) I was using pxelinux/memdisk 3.36, I upgrade to 3.51, and also fell back to 2.11 all have the same issue. I have tried all the switches for memdisk that I saw posted on the memdisk

Like a lot of people, I am using SYSLINUX + MEMDISK to make a technician universal boot disk on a USB key (I have done the same with ISOLINUX and MEMDISK for a CD using Bart's method for bootable CDs) I *LOVE* Syslinux and MEMDISK, and what I can do with floppy images! I have a few problems that have cropped up, most notably the DOCMEMORY program (www.simmstester.com) boots fing, but the

Does someone know where I could get my hands on an ima that's larger than 2.88meg... I use winimage for all my ima's and stuff but i'm having trouble configuring a custom size.

Hello, I am a *nix newbie I am trying to boot a DOS boot disk using PXE (to Ghost on windows images). We have an existing PXE server which successfully serves out PXElinux and Fedora builds based on that but my floppy disk image with memdisk isn't working I have tried a few different floppy images which people have posted as ones that work for them but I doubt the disk is the problem

Hi, Does Xen HVM support the the "disk" option that can attach a FAT partion or a floppy image like the qemu? In qemu, we can do it with the option "-hda fat:/root/tmp/" and "-fda /root/floopy.img". Any reply is appreciated. Thanks, Bei Guan _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com

I hope I've understand that all, somebody wants to create a floppy-image larger than 2.88MB an use it with memdisk? I have modified a tool from Bart Lagerweij (Big thanks!) and can create Floppy-Images with 5760kB and 8100kB, and boot them with ISOLINUX and MEMDISK (or also with a modified DISKEM1X.BIN), is this what you mean? These tools must run under windows, but booting no problem.

Now I installed XEN but system doe not boot as the boot device seems not to be recocnized by the

Dear Syslinux folks, For a firmware update I am following the Gentoo Wiki [1] to create a floppy image of 20 MB, so that the vendor update utility fits. Unfortunately, FreeDOS does not load, and it seems to hang loading the FreeDOS kernel. The original FreeDOS image boots. Do you know if that issue is memdisk related? It?s started from GRUB with the commands below. linux16 /boot/memdisk
