similar to: Err: "Missing OS" Using altMBR.bin

Just achieved success using syslinux to multi-OS boot, including a WinXP System (boot) partition that's been encrypted with TrueCrypt (TC). You'll need syslinux version 3.81-pre13 or newer to get a working altmbr.bin file. I used: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/boot/syslinux/Testing/syslinux-3.81-pre13.zip Background: I started with a 'normal' multi-OS boot setup as

Hi, altmbr.bin and its variants apparently always boot the first partition (in Syslinux 4.05, but this issue seems older than that). The following example uses parted 3.0: ---------- rm -f flat mkdir mnt truncate -s 20M flat parted -s flat mklabel msdos mkpart primary fat32 1MiB 10485759B mkpart primary ext2 11MiB 100% unit KiB print losetup -o 1048576 -s 9437184 /dev/loop7 flat mkdosfs

Yes and No The D500 is a terrible thing First problem: it sends some horrible DTMF, so if your voicemail is configured to send #H and *H, it will not work, configure it to send numbers, like 8H and 9H (H is a placeholder for the extension). I also managed to use the MWI (message light), it's a perl script that is in voip-info.org, but with a little correction because the wiki distorted it. If

Is there option for deleting xattr-s same as --delete for files, because it seems deletion of xattr don't sync, however it is synced when data of file change, see example below. Maybe this is a bug or maybe this is ok? System gentoo attr-2.4.32, rsync form today cvs. -- Regards Stanislaw Gruszka stasiu@sg /mnt/hda5/export $ echo "data" > file stasiu@sg /mnt/hda5/export $

Hi, all ! I have a situation like this: [SIP Terminals] <-> [*] < -ISDN-PRI-> [Panasonic D500] <-> Telecom (conn to Telecom is with second PRI card in Panasonic and 16 POTS lines). Panasonic has 2 ISDN PRI cards (one to Telco, and second to Asterisk), 16 POTS lines to telco and 32 (advanced hybrid telephone type) extensions. Idea is to have possibility to have some users on

Hi, i am trying to document the MBR selection by isohybrid option --partok. I assume it is related to "altmbr.bin" as described in http://www.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php/Mbr But there i read "altmbr.bin [...] boots from a partition with fixed number, see below." The "see below" probably refers to "The altmbr.bin (all 3 variants) is only 439 bytes long, -- one

I've tried to find my answer to this question but I have not (yet). Any assistance or expert knowledge is greatly appreciated! PROBLEM: mounting an ext3 volume 'read only' results in a different md5sum hash value for the volume than when the same volume is *not* mounted SCENARIO: - when I hash unmounted /dev/hda5 using 'md5sum /dev/hda5' I get value XXX. - when I hash

For the MBR: I usually don't touch the Microsoft MBR and chainload Linux from the Microsoft bootloader. However while trying to get my btrfs setup to work, I backed up the Microsoft MBR (dd if=/dev/sda bs=440 count=1 of=MBRbackup.bin) and I installed the syslinux MBR. I tried several ways: - with the script provided by Arch: syslinux-install_update -i -a -m - manual method with mbr.bin (first

Hi, H. Peter Anvin: > It means that the .iso can be booted from a partition using any of the > standard MBRs (not necessarily altmbr), But the --partok MBRs (isohdpp*) stem from altmbr ? If so: don't they need the partition number patched in ? (If not: i have to rethink the link to article "Mbr" at http://www.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php/Isohybrid#MBR_selection ) >

Hello, Sorry for the off-topic, but I've just installed CentOS 5 on my home box and I want to put the journal on another drive. I created a software RAID-1 device, /dev/md1, and formatted an ext3 file system on it. Now I want to move the journal to /dev/hda5. I've googled for this and the process appears to be: mkfs.ext3 -b 4096 -O journal_dev /dev/hda5 mkfs.ext3 -b 4096 -J

Guys (and Gals), FYI I also have the *same* message here. Wonder is it is related to my Compaq D500 Space Saver PIV 1.7 or the fact that I don't yet have a modem card in the * box.

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

I've been running RH 72 on my Dell at work. Since I use more than one system and I test things, I forgot that I had the root partition as ext3. That machine has two kernels on it. One is the stock 2.4.7 RH 72 and the other is the new 2.4.17 that I compiled last week. This morning I logged in and typed startx. The kernel responed by coughing up a lung and segfaulted. Couldn't run any

To test CentOS 5, I loaded from DVD adding it to a system at home running Fedora Core 7 T2. Partition Layout is: /dev/hda1 - / for the RH7T2 system /dev/hda2 - /home /dev/hda3 - swap /dev/hda4 - extended /dev/hda5 - / for CentOS 5 The system loaded cleanly and gave me the opportunity to tell grub about the other system. CentOS boots fine. Grub Stage 2 will show me both systems.

The following are some comments about Syslinux documentation as present in version 4.06 - 5.00pre9. 1_ In "./NEWS", the changelog for version 4.04 includes "GCC 4.5 fixes". Maybe the changelog for Syslinux 4.06 should include "GCC 4.7 fixes" (or 4.7.x ?). 2_ In "./NEWS", the changelog for version 4.05 includes "ISOLINUX: remove the .img file

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
