similar to: [PATCH 1/1]: Ethersel must use the pci com32 module instead of builtin pci detection code

From : Erwan Velu <erwan.velu at free.fr> This patch a new com32 module to handle cpu information. A new "cpu" structure can be filled by calling "detect_cpu(&cpu)". It provides : - Vendor name as string - Model as string - Vendor as integer - Model as integer - Family as integer - Stepping as Integer - Flags as boolean - SMP as boolean Note that SMP is just a

From : Erwan Velu <erwan.velu at free.fr> As discussed on IRC, I've been reworking my patch, I resend it. This patch - add a new pci_dev_info structure : It contains additional informations about the pci devices like the product/vendor name and the associated linux kernel module - add a get_name_from_pci_ids() function in pci/scan.c This function reads a pci.ids file from the

From : Erwan Velu <erwan.velu at free.fr> This patch add the ability to read the long-mode flag from the processor. This helps you to know if the processor is x86_64 capable or not. So "dmi->processor.cpu_flags.lm " is a boolean that represent the "Long Mode" cpu flag. It also add two bugfix : - some cpu flags were shifted due to some "null" messages in

From : Erwan Velu <erwan.velu at free.fr> This patch fixes the pci detection stuff demo'd in pcitest.c32 - Fix a wrong type in malloc - Incorrect use of strdup This two fixes makes pcitest.c32 working far better, no more crash when running it twice. I'd like to thank Sebastian Herbszt for its reports and tests. This patch was made for 3.62-pre16 but applies fine on 3.63-pre1.

It is supposed to match but sometimes it doesn't; I had the case where I contacted my local server on my public adress and responded from the loopback. So it was the same server from two different addresses which confused then the rest of the code. By adding this print I was able to get the situation immediately and fixed it. That's why I added that information on the debug print.

Hello! ethersel.c32 does not seem to work with all PCs. I have prepared a floppy that uses ethersel.c32 to load a NIC-specific file (etherboot .zlilo image). See http://etherboot.anadex.de for details. It works with every NIC and every PC I own, but not with VMWare. I know VMWare has some problems, so that did not bother me at all and I published it anyway but I have received several e-mails

I've been submitting a patch t o add a com32 module able to parse the DMI table. I'm starting now the next step : having a way to boot some different menu regarding the dmi structures. I've been looking for some ideas with the ethersel syntax : DEV [DID xxxx:yyyy[/mask]] [RID zz-zz] [SID uuuu:vvvv[/mask]] commandline In other hand, a nice implementation must allow to do : "if

From : Erwan Velu <erwan.velu at free.fr> This patch add a new com32 module named dmi. It can parse DMI Hanldes number 0,1,2,3,4. Using a very simple API, you can read the values of the following "Handles" - BIOS - CHASSIS - SYSTEM - BASE_BOARD - PROCESSOR It's possible and easy to extend to many other Handles. A sample code program called dmitest shows how you can use and

"Menu" is limited to 8 menus with 12 items each.

I created a bootable usb flash with boot menu. One of items was "Boot from hard drive" with command "localboot 0x81". This item worked when this usb flash was prepared with syslinux 6.02. And it stopped working when the flash was prepared with syslinux 6.03. The message was Booting from local disk... Boot error I extracted the source code, investigated, changed, compiled

That is perfectly true. I had a beautiful bug in the code .... Switching from python to C have some weird side-effect. Indenting is not enough, brackets are required....

Your PxeLinux is really a good product and contains really good features (i.e memdisk). But PxeLinux is a very low level program, contains assembly code and seems to no be portable to Itanium architectures. Does a version of PxeLinux planned for Itanium architecture ? PS:On my configuration, option pxelinux.reboottime (code 211) you give in your documentation removes my "default router"

Hi all, I'm new to this mailing list but I'm using this product since I'm in charge of making a clustering distribution using PXE of course. Yesterday night I was fighting with a problem of WakeOnLan (off topic). Everything is working now but my PXE ROM (MBA on 3com products) should be started for having the Wake On Lan feature working.
