Hello other Syslinux users. I am absolutely brand new to syslinux, and i need help setting it up. I have read all of the documentation on the site, to no avail. Basically I need like an example syslinux.cfg file that allows for multiple boot as well as a background picture. In essence i am attempting to setup up several different linux live systems and dos boot floppy utilities on my usb stick. I

Is there a method by which one could boot an ISO image from a flash drive with syslinux? -- Dimeneira aka Dime

Hello, I am trying to make a usb stick full of utilities. However some of the utilities do not use syslinux, and are iso's. Is there any method available for turning the iso into a bootable drive img to be used with memdisk? -- Dimeneira aka Dime

Hello! I've been attempting to add EFI support to a linux live distro (slax), it's built on a syslinux bootloader. I can get EFI to work using menu.c32 on syslinux 6.03; however ideally we'd like the VESA menu as well. When we use the vesamenu.c32 and libcom32.c32 from 6.03 we end up with a blank screen and the machine seems to hang. I've tried adding MENU RESOLUTION based on

My goal is to be able to install to the drive array on the 3Ware controller card. 3Ware does provide a RH WS 3 driver that I've tried to use; however, the RH Enterprise 3 WS driver doesn't work since that kernel is older than the CentOS-3.1 install kernel. I'm trying to create a centOS-3.1 installation driver disk for the 3ware 9500S card; however, I'm not having much luck.

Hi, I am trying to track down a ISOLINUX boot problem on my workhorse computer. Booting slax-6.0.0-rc5.iso from www.slax.org (a live distro) from CD gives the following messages: Loading /boot/vmlinuz ........... Loading /boot/initrd.gz ............ Ready. _ Silence. The next message should be, but does not appear: Uncompressing Linux ........... This message appears with the same CD on an old

Hi, I have an HP 8530w laptop. I need ti instal it under CentOS 5.2 x86_64 - kernel 2.6.18-92. The network card is not recognized. I have add the driver e1000e-0.5.11.2 (dowload from Intel site). After compiled and installed the driver, all work fine! But I need to make a network installation and the Intel network card should be recognized before. I found the following script on the net and

Hi, Normally i doesn't choose this way to solve problems, but i need a fast and good help because it's really important to me. I would like to boot a LIVE CD, called SLAX (depending on SLACKWARE) over PXElinux. So i've got a server with dhcp,tftp and pxelinux. In the tftp folder are the SLAX files. Now i would like to boot from a client this LIVE CD. Because this is a LIVE CD i

I've been looking around for information about MBRCheck and decided to look at a disk that I ran syslinux on to see what it claims afterwards What should I see as an sha1 hash for a disk that has been made bootable by syslinux? I remember reading that I should make a disk bootable in linux by the command dd if=mbr.bin of=/dev/sd[x] and am starting to think this could get ugly for a verifiable

New idea proposal: Currently syslinux (and others) searches in for its config file, say syslinux.cfg, in a hardcoded list of directories. I propose that if the config file is not found, instead of producing an error message like "unable to locate config file", it should try to search in root directories and its subdirectories. There is -d option to install syslinux to any directory

I'm new to the lists so sorry about any faux pas I may have made. Also I apologize for the length, but I wanted to be sure I covered most of the details. I'm trying to do a PXE install on an Intel 1435VP2 server machine. The PXE install has worked on all the older machines in the cluster, so I know PXE is working. However, these new Intel server machines only support PXE booting from

Hello, I am trying to boot the extracted contents of an iso, on a usb stick, using the bootsect.bin included in the iso. Yet it will not work. the bootsect.bin file is in the root of the usb drive, as well as syslinux's cfg file. Here is what the cfg looks like PROMPT 1 TIMEOUT 100 DEFAULT main LABEL main BOOT /bootsect.bin -- Karch aka Dimeneira aka Dime

I'm new to the ISOLINUX development cycle, and I've tried a few times to come up with a solution. I'm trying to recompile isolinux.bin to look for the config files in a directory other than root, /boot/isolinux, or /isolinux. Ideally, this directory would be /lpc/isolinux. I've tried changing the plain text values in isolinux.asm to reflect these changes and recompiling using

I'm trying to use wine on a remote X11 desktop (my Mac iBook), and everything works except for the system fonts. I can see fonts in the system menus (File, Edit, Help, etc), but not anywhere else on the application. For example, when I run winecfg on the remote linux box (running Slax "Kill Bill" edition), I see *no* text whatsoever. When running winemine, I can only see text

I will install CentOS 4.3 and downloaded the driver disk from Dell for RedHat Enterprise Linux 4: Description: Dell PowerEdge RAID Controller 5 Device Driver for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.0, X86 & X86_64 I saw a few minutes ago that the driver disk is extracted within /tmp/ramfs/DD-01. Therfore I know that the network is working correct. I will try to extract the module and insmod/modprobe
