similar to: Syslinux.exe 64 bits Windows

Hello, I'm trying to use a current Syslinux setup, that is working well for service linux based distros, to serve up recent Windows server installs. As I'm new here I'm reluctant to make any changes to the environment unless I've exhausted the current options. We are running Syslinux 3.71 on a Gentoo server and all the DHCP and tftpd are "working as they should". What

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

Hi guys, We are using syslinux (memdisk) and gpxe already for a while. Also got a working winpe boot method by means of pxe. Which basicly is a dd of an 'recovery partition' where winpe.wim is on. That method isn't really the most efficient way, cause its loaded into memory twice. We are going to do a major windows 7 deployment soon and i'm looking for the most efficient way 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

Hello all, I'm booting for 1 year WinPE 2.0 and floppy disk images via PXE (pxelinux) and this works very well. I also want my floppy disk images and WinPE 2.0 on a bootable USB Stick. So i format my usb stick with fat16 and use Syslinux to make it bootable. I can now boot from stick and execute the floppy disk images. This works very well. But how can i add WinPE 2.0 booting support ? I

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 am trying to load a WinPE boot image using wimboot, and failing. The 3 files appear to load successfully (the output "Encapsulating ... <filename>" is displayed for each file, taking a few minutes on the .wim file as expected based on the size), but then the workstation just reboots, and I don't see output after that. Has anyone successfully loaded WinPE using wimboot with

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...

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. It's there, but downloads as a zero-byte file. > Date: Sun, 6 Jul 2014 22:40:21 +0200 > From: herbszt at gmx.de > To: sha0.miller at gmail.com > CC: syslinux at zytor.com; jml9904 at hotmail.com > Subject: Re: [syslinux] mdiskchk and WinPE > > Shao Miller wrote: > > On 7/6/2014 01:55, Ady wrote:

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.

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.

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. I'm working on replacing a PXELINUX/MEMDISK loaded DOS based installation image with a PXELINUX/MEMDISK loaded WinPE ISO image. So far everything seems to work well (appending "bigraw" to memdisk solved booting problems on several machines), but I kind of miss the option of using getargs.com to get/set environment variables from the memdisk command line. Is there any way to

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
