similar to: vesamenu causing screen lock-up

Hello. I am trying to run advanced dialog-like menus from com32. But I can not boot anything... ? it always fails. :-) So, my /path/to/pxelinux.cfg/default looks like this: --------------8<-------------- DEFAULT pxemenu/fancy.c32 PROMPT 0 IMPLICIT 1 TIMEOUT 600 LABEL test MENU LABEL Test KERNEL suse10_3/vmlinuz APPEND initrd=suse10_3/initrd.img ....(and so on)....

I am trying to create a DVD with ISOLinux as the bootloader to allow my users to select to install either Linux or Windows. Having read the article http://syslinux.zytor.com/archives/2002-October/001135.html i am left in a bit of a confused state as it sort of half explains things. All i think i need to know is: 1. What files are needed to boot windows? 2. Where do i have to place the

The attached config works, but gives 2 error messages that get covered up by the GUI screen so fast I cannot read them. I think they are probably about having 'LABEL' with nothing after it. I was trying to follow the example in menu.doc but somehow I'm doing it wrong. Please consider helping me figure out how to get the same resulting GUI menu without any error messages. I am using

Hi All, I have used menu.c32 to offer several booting options to our users via pxelinux... the icing on the cake would be if there was some mechanism whereby the pxelinux boot could be restarted, with the usual search for pxelinux.cfg/... files... all without a reboot and going through POST. Does anyone know if this is possible or if a comboot module exists for such a thing ? Cheers, Doug

I have three questions. If these are not currently possible, consider it a feature request: 1. Is it possible to create label aliases, such that one label will simply use the configuration of another, without having to completely copy the configuration. It would also be great if these aliases could cross INCLUDE boundaries, such that a label can call a label defined in an included file.

Hi all, I recently started with Xen (3.1.0) on my new server running Ubuntu Gutsy (7.10) and I''m experiencing very poor network performance on my domU''s. Since my colo provider offers me a /28 of routed public IPs next to one interconnection IP to their routers, I built a Xen configuration as described in http://www.debian-administration.org/articles/360 (a routed

hi I have download the syslinux-3.51 source package and i have tried to compile syslinux with MinGw. I got the following error message. *********************************************************************** $ make nasm -O99 -f bin -DDATE_STR="'0x47bd5366'" -DHEXDATE="0x47bd5366" \ -DMAP=isolinux.map -l isolinux.lst -o isolinux.bin isolinux.asm

Hello list, We have a scenario where our TFTP server is not the same IP as our DHCP server. While testing with 6.03, our setup works just fine. However with the master branch, for some reason pxelinux.0 is fetched from the TFTP servers IP, but then it tries to load ldlinux.c32 from the DHCP servers IP. I've tracked down this problem to the following commit:

Dear All, Firstly, many thanks for the hard work put in by the development team :) Now I have a couple of problems, any help welcome: 1) Some of our software needs linuxthreads (i.e. InsightII) but it's closed source and the writers (Accelrys) are unlikely to respin the code as they want us to move to a different program. Is there any way of installing another set of glibc libs on centos

Hello, With grub I can use "e" to edit the kernel options before booting. Can I do this with pxelinux.0? I have a lot of kickstart files, and now I have inherited a lot of hardware which requires a serial console and text install. Instead of doubling the number of kickstart files, it would be nice if I could append "text serial=XXX" to the kernel options for a particular

I'm integrating DBAN (http://dban.sourceforge.net/) into our PXE boot menu system (using vesamenu.c32) but it just hangs when I'm using vesamenu.c32 and confusingly when I revert our menu system to using vesa.c32 it works ok. I've stripped out any extraneous configuration but it still seems to have the same problem. When I use this in pxelinux.cfg it boots into DBAN ok: default

Hi, UTF8 is a standard today. Nevertheless it seems to be impossible to display UTF8 characters in vesamenu.c32. Am I wrong? There is nothing about that in the docs. Are there plans to make vesamenu.c32 UTF8 capable or make syslinux capable e.g. for LC_ALL=de_DE.UTF8? Best regards, Uwe Galle

I'm currently building a tree-like boot menu for my network, using pxelinux and vesamenu.c32. I jump from one page to another with "kernel vesamenu.c32" and "append newmenu". However, at some points I'd like to use the classic interface, for example with a distribution install image (in order to have the exact same interface as on the CD). I tried loading pxelinux.0
