Hiya. I didn't really offer to help, but as I had time, here's a unified diff clearing the only problem I saw in the docs: not explaining all options.

Hello all, I just installed syslinux 2.10 on my usb-stick. It still boots then, but doesn't load initrd.gz (same config file..). Reverting back to syslinux 2.09 works fine, eg: initrd.gz is loaded. Something changed in initrd handling code? greetz, Jaap Crezee NB I am willing to share you more information or hints how to solve the problem. I am using kernel 2.6.7-bk20

Hi All, First post and hopefully someone can steer me in the right direction for this problem. I did a bit of googling and found some hints but nothing concrete. We are using Syslinux and a FAT32 USB thumb drive (single partition) to boot a customized Debian OS which works very well with newer motherboards. However we have a few older Dell machines that simply hangs when trying to boot

Is it possable to boot a diskimage with syslinux? So often I run into bios upgrade disks images or can easily create a disk image and would like an easy way to just boot these images. I know isolinux does this and I vagely remember using it to make a bootable windows 95 cd back in the day. It worked to. It would be nice if I could just copy the disk image to a usbstick and use syslinux to boot

Hi, I'm trying to build a bootable MSDOS disk and put it on a ISO with floppy and hard disk emulation. I want to use commonly available Linux tools like dd, losetup, mkdosfs, memdisk etc. I have done the following: 1. dd if=/dev/zero of=myImage bs=1M count=50 [ Builds a 52MB image ] 2. losetup /dev/loop0 myImage [Links /dev/loop0 to myImage file ] 3. vi /grub/stage1; %!xxd; [ NULL the partion

Hi all, This surely has nothing to do with syslinux, but since many people here ar eusing USB sticks as booting devices (using syslinux) this is a good place to ask, I think. I have an Apacer 1GB USB stick that was happily booting PCs using syslinux. But now, after some tests, it does not anymore. It does not even produce some kind of message from syslinux when booting. Nothing. The

I haven't looked at what GParted does, so I may be off mark, but I have a strong suspicion that this LBA "flag" is a fake flag that simply indicates if a

Hi, I'm looking for a hint about what has changed in syslinux 6.03. Some years ago I had written a script that configures a bootable USB pen drive with syslinux and some boot images, which still worked well under Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and previous versions, but does not work anymore under Ubuntu 15.10 with syslinux 6.03. I've boiled this down to a test-script that isolates the problem:

I have been trying to open data that I have saved in an excel spread sheet. I saved it as a csv. Then I tried using the read.csv command. However, everytime I do this-- diseasedat<-read.csv("M:/sloan/R/disease/disease.csv", sep=, header = TRUE, fill= TRUE)-- I get an error message: Error in file(file, "r") : unable to open connection In addition: Warning message:

I'm trying to add boot support to https://github.com/libguestfs/nbdkit/tree/master/plugins/floppy This NBD server plugin generates a completely virtual FAT filesystem and partition table. Nothing is ever written to a file, and it must run without anything needing to be root, loop mounting etc. Running "syslinux --install <something>" is a non-starter. So I've looked at

I Have been trying to convert a vector of dates into julian dates using the following commands: as.date & as.numeric. I can convert a date no problem by doing the following: as.numeric (as.date ("9/21/2004")) but as soon as I try to do an entire vector I am given the following: as.numeric (as.date(date1)) Error in as.date(date1) : Cannot coerce to date format I have tried

I would like to make one histogram combining two value vectors. One vector has more than 50 entries and the other only has 16. Both vectors contain dates in the POSIXct format. I need to be able to highlight the 16 entries from the smaller data set. Is it possible to do this with the hist function? Which function should I use?
