similar to: USB Boot WinPE 2.0 via syslinux

I just encountered my only bug w/ the ISOLINUX+VESAMENU combination from 3.52-pre5. Updated a *working* CD project w/ the new ISOLINUX+VESAMENU combo just last week. Booting my preferred Linux distro (Slax-6) from my custom CDs work perfectly, however when I updated a CD project that includes BartPE/WinPE, BartPE fails to boot w/ 'CDBoot can not boot CD: error 4" msg. For the

Hi guys, im looking for method booting winpe2.0 or bartpe directly from a directory into ram. Currently im booting from iso images, and its working really good, but since im modify alot, its a hassle to create a new iso everytime, making it bootable....etc. So if anyone might can help me, i would really appreciate it Thx in advance..

HPA, I believe that support to boot windows CD bootsectors was broken in 3.05. I have tested 2.13, 3.00, 3.02, 3.05, 3.06, 3.08, 3.11, and 3.20pre6. All versions >= 3.05 are broken. All versions <= 3.02 work fine with the same config. The error message I get is: ================================================================ IOSLINUX 3.20 3.20-pre6 Copyright (C) 1994-2005 H.

Peter, First, I'm not a programmer and I don't have Linux. The reason I am emailing you is that I spend the two weeks looking over your site and other trying to figure out " HOW to create an ISOLinux image or convert my existing ISO image to and ISOLinux image. I have some software called" Flashboot" that can take and ISOLinux image and can create a bootable Flash drive of

Greetings, all... Hoping someone can point me in the right direction. I've set up a Linux PXE host with a menu choice to install Windows. This option boots a WinPE image, which then uses \\net use... to mount the appropriate ISO image. Works fine. However, I would like to pass the iso name and directory into WinPE from the menu via append= arguments. Thus, I can set up a separate menu option

Hi mailing list, I'm working on PXE booting a BartPE (=Windows XP) system from a server running hpa tftpd. In the initialization phase the files are requested from the boot server by TFTP, later the transfer is switched to SMB. Most of the problems during this tftp phase can be solved with the remapping feature quite nicely like: *converting filenames into absolute paths *convert

This got me closer, but it got to "Encapsulating winpe.wim..." and never went through the rest of the way. Ultimately PXELINUX apparently timed out and the machine rebooted.

I have set up a RHEL 5.7 PXE server and trying to get a WinPE ISO to work. Currently PXE seems to handle the image properly but the process stops after Loading boot sector... booting...

One of the things we would really like to be able to do for V2V is to install a new driver in a Windows guest. There are a couple of reasons for this: * The guest may not be bootable without the driver installed, for example because the underlying virtual hardware has changed from vmscsi to virtio. * If the guest can boot, the alternative is to modify the guest to run a script on next boot.

Hi The setup, as in the subject, is supposed to boot a Winpe to install xp to a clean PC. I use the Ramdisk method (ie PXELinux pases the setup on to the M$ pxe loader and and boots WinPE) It works perfectly with evry other chipset, but Nvidias NForce 4. (tested 15 different) With NF4 it loads up well but the M$ PnP routine detects the Network management bus wrong (nvidia specific approach to

Thus the rub: The exe seems to have disappeared from winbin as well.

Hi everyone, thanks for taking the time to read my post. I am using ubuntu 8.04 DRBL in an IT setting that has wine 1.1.16 installed with Spybot S&D. We use it to PXE boot virus-infected computers to scan them without threatening a real installation, and without the hassle of live-cds. Spybot has a switch (/allhives) that detects multiple windows installations for scanning, and the switch

Is it possible to chain isolinux and memdisk over pxelinux? If it's possible, I'd like to boot a CD Image over the network. I've been using pxelinux to boot ltsp for years, and recently upgraded to take advantage of memdisk for booting a DOS hd-image. Ideally I'd be able to boot a CD-Image. Thoughts? -- <:3)~ Michael T.

Anyone have luck with pxechn32 and bootmgfw.efi? I'm getting the "Unable to retrieve first package" issue as reported by others. Really, any advice for UEFI booting into a winpe environment off of pxelinux 6.03 would be beneficial.

Hi All, Is there a way to retrieve the APPEND string under OS's other than Linux? I seen a while ago a version for DOS, but it didn't work under WinPE. I would be interested in developing a Win32 program to do such a thing if the specification were available. Your thoughts HPA? Regards Rob
