similar to: SYSLINUX used by Intel for BIOS updates

Hello everyone, Since I have some some adventures in UEFI PXE booting ahead I tried to go with the latest syslinux development snapshot in this case 5.10pre1. But I already fail when booting from CD with Failed to load COM32 file .c32 I am a bit perplex since no name of COM32 files is given. I am trying to trace down the issue as good as I can. COM32 files present are:

I have a Lilo.conf file, which I have tried for many hours to convert to Syslinux. I looked around on the web for references on translating some of the components. I want to convert it to Syslinux/Isolinux. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. When I tried to convert it I made sure that the kernel and initrd had proper DOS names and such. -Michael =:LILO.CONF:= prompt timeout=10

A flashing cursor trails at the end of the line. Escape key does not return boot: prompt.

I just encountered my only bug w/ the ISOLINUX+VESAMENU combination from 3.52-pre5. Updated a *working* CD project w/ the new ISOLINUX+VESAMENU combo just last week. Booting my preferred Linux distro (Slax-6) from my custom CDs work perfectly, however when I updated a CD project that includes BartPE/WinPE, BartPE fails to boot w/ 'CDBoot can not boot CD: error 4" msg. For the

Have been using syslinux for some time for my g4l project, and was just looking at the new 5.00. Normally have just copied the new files, but with version 5.00 it is missing the support files according to ldd, and even putting the missing files in the directory failes to find them. ../../com32/... Script to copy files from new syslinux directory to the projects isolinux directory that is

We have tried compiling the binaries our self and using the pre-compiled in the syslinux tar ball as well. It just locks up with the text we provided. The problem is booting from CD, booting from USB works. I suspect the problem is in isolinux.bin. The CD only fails on this one machine. It works on everything else we tried. 4.06 worked without any issue on this same machine. Parted Magic has been

Hi We have a couple of FSC Computers here which seem to have a very strange bios. I am trying to boot a MS-DOS disk to flash an Scsi Raid controller. Since the computer doesn't have a floppy anymore I tried syslinux from an usb stick. The menu loads fine but I cannot boot disc images with memdisk on this computer. It works fine on others, of course. But now comes the weird part, if I use the

Hi, the riddle about the failing repacks is solved, thanks to ISOLINUX wiki: "does support long (level 2) ISO 9660 plain filenames" The archlinux ISO makes use of such names. So i have to follow the wiki advise "use the "-l" or "-iso-level 2" option to mkisofs" Thus, a CD-bootable archlinux ISO without isohybrid and EFI can be repacked by # mount -o

Hi, I'm having trouble booting my system using the SuSE 9.0 installer CD at ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/9.0/boot/boot.iso (ISOLINUX 2.06). My system is a Kontron cPCI-DT64 single board computer. The CD-ROM drive is an Adtron IC6C, has its own IDE controller and sits in another cPCI slot. System Details: System BIOS - PhoenixBIOS 4 Release 6.0, cPCI-DT64 BIOS 2.5 Adapter BIOS - Sil

Okay, I'm going to ask the gajillion-dollar question... I've been doing syslinux for 11 years now. From a very limited scope it has since grown and is now a very advanced boot loader. Unfortunately, it's not clear to me anymore to what extent the work I'm doing is useful. I personally dislike grub because of its monolithic design, and because the grub people have

Hi, I bought a USB hard drive, got Mandriva installed on it, and made it bootable with extlinux. Works great on machines that can boot from USB. I also created a boot cd using the instructions in the wiki. This is working too. The only problem with the boot cd is that I had to copy the kernel, initrd, etc. to the cd. This means that whenever I install a new kernel I'll have to create and

I think the Syslinux 5.00 branch is now at the point where I believe it it is feature complete and should be able to replace the main Syslinux branch. As such, it is important that we get wider testing, and especially that people let us know if and where it breaks. As of right now, there aren't any known bugs...

Hi there, i just build a new ipxelinux.0 with an EMBED=../../syslinux-5/core/pxelinux.0. i'm trying to load up my vesamenu.c32 menu from http:. and offcorse i want this as optimal as possible, with the least needed GET requests. OLD situation with v4: PXE ROM -> ipxelinux.0 (tftp) -> menu.php (http) -> vesamenu.c32 (http) NEW situation with v5: PXE ROM -> ipxelinux.0 (tftp)

Using versions 3.53 and 3.54, I get that message with the following configuration file (which is under 8192 bytes) on a USB stick; it's the configuration file from PCLinuxOS 2007. It was originally named isolinux.cfg; I changed isolinux.* to syslinux* for booting from USB. There is no blank line at the end of the file. It works well with 3.11, but that version doesn't allow me to put all

I have released SYSLINUX 2.10-pre2. I *really* would like testing reports for this one, especially ISOLINUX, since I've included Knut Petersen's fix for Award BIOSes... Changes in 2.10: * MEMDISK: Handle images compressed with zip as well as with gzip. Some Windows-based image tools apparently generate these kinds of images by default. Patch by Patrick
