similar to: Changing hotkey when booting thru syslinux

Here is the patch for making syslinux enable opening partitions with fat filesystems (well, the architecture is in place to make it open other filesystems too). Usage is like this: #include <syslinux/io.h> #include <syslinux/partitions.h> #include <fs/fat/libfat.h> syslinux_devdesc dfd; struct libfat_filesystem* fs; diskinfo disk_info; char mbr[512]; static part_entry

Hey, Looks like read disk function which was launched in 3.35 isnt working. Did anyone test this on any hardware? I'm using it thru the com32 interface to read contents of the active partition of a USB boot key (syslinux). I did a sample test like: void scanAndPrint() { com32sys_t regs_in; char *sectorBuf = __com32.cs_bounce; int i; memset(sectorBuf, 0x0, 512); // XXX MARK 1

Good day, I was expecting this to be a FAQ but haven't been able to find an answer... how would I arrange to, normally, not be presented with either prompt or menu when booting, yet be still able to call up prompt/menu when needed? If the right answer is "set PROMPT 0, provide a DEFAULT entry and no UI entry" then that doesn't work currently, in the sense that it is then

I assumed the keys not working would be specific to my straight-booting wish, but playing around with the suggestions that you provided, I see it's indeed more

Hello, I noticed after upgrading from 3.20, I haven't been able to get syslinux to boot properly with menu.c32 or mboot.c32 from a USB key. I get an error saying invalid kernel when its trying to load menu.c32 or mboot.c32 (or any other kernel for that matter). I tried 3.35 and 3.36-pre5. Same exact behaviour. I'm using the following to compile: gcc version 3.2.3 20030502 (Red Hat Linux

I thought I've found three bugs on syslinux 6.03: (1) With sample config file as is, i.e. leaving commented MENU VSHIFT and MENU COLOR UNSEL but uncommented MENU COLOR SEL: A black "border" is displayed below the selected line and on its right edge. (2) Uncommenting MENU COLOR UNSEL: This effect appears also on separators and on right edge on every unselected lines. (3)

Hello, First of all, I'm really not an expert so please correct me if I'm saying anything wrong. I noticed a difference when using grub2 or syslinux in my linux virtual console (tty[1-5]) which uses VGA text mode (no graphical mode). To be sure that I'm using this mode, I did: $ dmesg | grep -i vga Console: colour VGA+ 80x25 In my understanding when using the VGA text mode,

folks, If you boot from syslinux based USB/harddisk, is there a way to know the partition or disk you booted from? I'm using the mboot module, so if the info is availble to thru the COM api, i can get it and append it to cmdline. thanks. -- Ram

Hello, Stumble upon this issue. If one define digits as hotkeys, the action is also taken for the non-reserved CTRL-P to CTRL-Y (also affect ASCII prior to digits). Here's a quick patch, quickly tested for action on uppercase/lowercase and digit and inaction on "matching" CTRL key. Regards, Dany *Sample config section* LABEL extra2 MENU LABEL ^2. Two # pressing 2 activates

3.71, using isolinux and simple menu system menu.c32 To avoid having many different menu config files (one for each submenu) I'm trying switching from the once required syntax ==== MENU LABEL > ^Firmware/BIOS KERNEL menu.c32 APPEND menufw.cfg ==== to ==== MENU BEGIN MENU TITLE ^Firmware/BIOS <stuff that was inside menufw.cfg> MENU END ==== However, it's not

Greetings Syslinux forum, I used this link; https://askubuntu.com/questions/1090891/grub-menu-colors and I followed it's tutorial for implementing the grub theme and was able to delete the menu border by creating a customized grub theme for UEFI boot (grub.cfg)! Do you know if the "syslinux.cfg"(legacy boot grub) can have it's border removed, like do you know if

Hi Folks Since updated to 1.0.1/2 I got a prob with the hotkey to access voicemailmain. According to the wiki "0" jumps to extension "o" and "*" to "a" "0" isn't working, I get vm-sorry followed by HangUp :( "*" is working and I get access. So I changed the dialplan to get my voicemail managed. Tested on zaphfc and capi Is

Hi, I have collected a bunch of old PII PCs that I am trying to PXE boot. There NICs are old and so I use etherboot floppy to emulate a native PXE boot.

Then it stucks after printing the IP row. --------------- pxelinux output ----------------------- PXELINUX 3.10 2005-08-24

I have just pushed out SYSLINUX 3.10-pre11. This version hopefully should fix Curtis' bug (display file garbage) as well as the NOESCAPE problem. Curtis, Alex and Paul, could you try this version out, please? -hpa

For newer distro's (like ubuntu 6.10, FC5+), syslinux build fails due to gcc 4. Here is a patch to get it to build properly. The only thing it does is add -fno-stack-protection to CFLAGS in all the Makefiles. http://svn.borg.ch/patches/syslinux/syslinux-gcc4.patch thanks, Ram

Hello! I'm trying to install a Windows application called Macro Express, wich automatizes a lot of process with recorded macros. The macros are called by pressing Hotkeys combinations like Control+1 or Control+2 etc. Then, the macro sends keys to applications. I have installed the program on kubuntu and Wine 0.9.30. The problems are that it only regonizes Hotkeys when Macro Express window is
