Hi. Which is the preferable method for booting multiple logical partions via syslinux ? 1. Create seperate logical (fat 32) partitons for 'each' Live CD, extracted and prepared identically via syslinux/syslinux.cfg (sdc5, sdc6,sdc7 etc.) 2. Use Grub2 to attempt to boot seperate logical partitions with the same extracted Live CD plan as above. 3. Use the chain.c32 module that

Hello! I was asking for help on the Freenode channel, and I was pointed here. I have a situation where, using xl, I can create a functional PV domU, with or without pv-grub, but I cannot access the console. Firing up xend and using xm works without trouble. Since xend and company is being deprecated, I would like to transition to using the xl toolstack. The system is an Arch Linux system

Lately I've been finding that most versions of Syslinux no longer work in the various linux distros I use them in (primarily Mandriva 2006 and Finnix.) When I try to run binaries such as the extlinux it produces the error "bash: ./extlinux/extlinux: cannot execute binary file" which it says for each of the major binaries. As nearly as I can tell, everything but the scripts in fact.

Hi, In the installation docs for a Solaris Xen 07/07 DomU (http://www.opensolaris.org/os/community/xen/docs/install-solaris-domu-iso.htm) the config file for the Solaris DomU is name = "solaris-install" memory = "1024" disk = [ ''file:/ws/public/isos/65-0604-nd.iso,6:cdrom,r'', ''file:/export/root/solaris_domu/disk.img,0,w'' ] vif = [

Hmm, yes. The series is available at https://github.com/wferi/syslinux as well (lua52 branch, based on upstream

I''ve been using Xen strictly for PV for a while now, but I recently upgraded to hardware capable of HVM domUs. I''m trying to get a really basic HVM instance going so I can get my hands around making them work, in anticipation of using one to run a BSD to act as a firewall for other domUs on the machine. (I like PF.) Also, I might need run windows at some point, I suppose.

Hi, This is my current patch queue. The patches are independent, AFAIK, so feel free to cherry-pick or reject them independently. The bottom one was needed for a successful build here; the top one contains all the modifications you requested on IRC, and more. Meanwhile I hit one of the four stray TABs in tftpd.c, and decided to get rid of them. Comments welcome. --- Ferenc Wagner (5):

Thanks but I am still in the same spot : 1) I have created a partition (ext2 with GParted). 2) Now what ? I was thinking that I should install syslinux (the bootloader). All the examples say something like "syslinux --directory /boot/syslinux/ --install /dev/sdb1" but this does not make any seance, because the is no /boot on the system. I have tried it anyways, but the

Hi, I'm trying to get the above working, without success so far: UNDIS.DOS refuses to load with an invalid NDIS stack message (from memory). keeppxe has some effect: it reduces the available conventional memory by 140 kbytes or so... still, the packet driver doesn't seem to find the interface. Does anybody have a working setup I could look at? -- Thanks, Feri.

In my usb drive with EXT3 filesystem in /dev/sda1 partition, syslinux uses the first sector on /dev/sda1 but EXT3 filesystem doesn't?

Hi, The internal Gnu-EFI build gives me grief: * efi/check-gnu-efi.sh: uses realpath, which is not available on my Debian wheezy system. I now use readlink -f, but wonder if it's needed at all. * efi/build-gnu-efi.sh: uses realpath, like above, and also pushd/popd, which is not built into a standard Bourne shell invoked by #!/bin/sh. Again I wonder what's the point of it, as

In order to create a paravirtualized guest/DomU, should i use the same distro as the host/dom0 is? Or is it possible to install a paravirtualized Debian (as a guest / DomU) into a CentOS (host / Dom0) ?
