similar to: SYSLINUX 3.80 released

Hi everyone, I have pushed out Syslinux 3.81 to the usual places. Again, special thanks to my employer, Intel, for letting me spend time working on this stuff ;) -hpa Syslinux 3.81 is primarily a bug fix release. The main new features are halt-on-idle support and some features to isohybrid, including the ability to boot from an image written to a partition. Changes in 3.81: *

I have just pushed out Syslinux 3.80-pre7. I am slightly concerned about putting this into the release tree at this point: I was working with some of the shuffler code, and found that the memory map handling was actually severely buggy on some of my test cases. Resolving that problem took rewriting most of syslinux_add_memmap(). However, against better judgement :) I decided to check in the

Does Syslinux (and pxelinux, and isolinux, etc) support setting video modes?

Hi everyone, I have pushed out Syslinux 3.82 to the usual places. Again, special thanks to my employer, Intel, for letting me spend time working on this stuff ;) -hpa Syslinux 3.82 is a bug fix release for 3.81. Changes in 3.82: * isohybrid: fix the -partok logic for loading from a partition. * ISOLINUX: deal with systems which return from INT 13h with interrupts

Syslinux 3.84 has been released. This is a mixed minor new features/minor bug fixes release. Changes in 3.84: * SYSLINUX: make the DOS installer work for MS-DOS 7.x/8.x (Win9x/ME) again. * HDT: updated to version 0.3.6 (numerous changes.) * mboot.c32: now supports video mode setting if requested by the image. * MEMDISK: Fix floppy images of

I am hitting a problem on syslinux-3.80-pre1-2-g6c0fb9e (only last label in config file is found), but don't want to "cry wolf" (again), so let's start with a question: ui.inc: ; ; Now check if it is a "virtual kernel" ; vk_check: mov esi,[HighMemSize] ; Start from top of memory .scan: cmp esi,[VKernelEnd] jbe

The commit "linux.c32: move handling of mem= and vga= into the library function" also sets DEBUG to 1 in mboot.h. Is this intended? - Sebastian

Syslinux 3.86 is out; it is a bug fix release. Syslinux 4.00, starting with Syslinux 4.00-pre38, is now officially in beta test. Special thanks to Intel Corporation, my current employer, for their support for my Syslinux work. Changes in 3.86: * chain.c32: fix chainloading the MBR of a hard disk (broken in 3.85). * mboot.c32: report the boot loader name in the information structure. *

Hi all, I've started writing a new mboot.c32 using the Syslinux native APIs; it is currently on the new-mboot branch of the Syslinux git repository. However, I don't have a huge number of things which use Multiboot set up to test, so I'd really appreciate it if you're a user of mboot.c32 to help me try this and report back positive or negative. I don't have the Solaris DHCP

Hi, We are using pxelinux at my company to test our product. And there are limitations that we have hit in the past w.r.t. the max length of a path, or the max length of a module name (in mboot.c / mboot.c32). We've used workarounds in the past, and reorganized the directory structure, but we face that problem again. Out of the 128 / FILENAME_MAX chars that can be used, 110 - 120 go to the

Well, here it is. This is a historic Syslinux release -- it's the first one in 15 years in which the majority of the work was not done by myself; mostly because of the *huge* effort Erwan and Pierre have put in on HDT. I also want to give a special thank you to my new(ish) employer, Intel Corporation, for letting me continue to work on Syslinux. :) From here, onward and upward. I

Hi, I would like to use INT22h, function 000Dh, but I found that it is disabled in vector table: in core/comboot.inc: int22_table: [...] dw comapi_err ; 000D clean up then bootstrap [...] The code of this function is present in this file (comapi_chainboot). Why this function is disabled? Regards Piotr Romaniuk PS I am using syslinux-4.04.

Changes in 3.73: * Upgrade gPXE to release version 0.9.5. * Fix a number of build errors on various platforms. * Handle systems with E820 "extended attributes" per ACPI 3. Someone "cleverly" decided to change the E820 spec in a backwards-incompatible manner! * MEMDISK: default to "safeint". * Adopt the moniker "The Syslinux Project", standard

Changes in 3.10: * gcc 4.0.1 compilation fixes. * Add support for querying the PCI BIOS in libcom32 (used by ethersel et al.) * Fix PCI handing (ethersel etc) on several old chipsets (and VMWare.) * Try to deal with systems with broken EBIOS. * New API call to do "localboot". * New API call to query features.

3.75 is a bug fix release for 3.74. Changes in 3.75: * PXELINUX: fix the "keeppxe" option, which was broken in 3.74. * MEMDISK: correct the extraction of geometry information from the MBR of a hard disk image, again broken in 3.74. * extlinux(1) man page from Brian Pellin. * Simple menu: MENU SAVE is now controllable on a menu-by-menu
