Lu Wei, What Hard drive are you also trying to boot? The first and only fixed drive inside a computer? If so would the line to boot a local HD not be: LABEL LOCAL MENU LABEL Local operating system in harddrive (if available) kernel chain.c32 append hd0 -Adan On Thu, Apr 4, 2019 at 8:56 AM Adan Calderon <adancalderon at gmail.com> wrote: > > Lu Wei, > > For the DOS portion

I made several attepmts using the tree of 5.01 2013. My syslinux.cfg file has display /path_to/syslinux.cfg directive. 1. The installation, with a --directory option, was successful. After boot I got syslinux boot prompt. The syslinux.cfg was not displayed. I guess that means the MBR was there, but not the partition boot sector. Then I noticed the thread at

Greetings, I encounter a problem that should be basic, but I can't get a clue. I have 8G USB disk formatted as FAT32. I run (syslinux -i -s -r -m H:) to make it bootable, and write syslinux.cfg according to the documents, but it will not boot some items. Syslinux is 6.03, bios files used. The whole syslinux.cfg file:

Hello list, I have a question concerning the possibility of booting one of two Windows systems installed on two partitions. In case with one Windows system and one Linux system, I can chainload grub or windows loader, and this is OK. But in case with two Windows systems, when I installed second system, the installer added multi boot loader(I think it's called bootmgr), and then I can't

So when you boot from only your hard drive attached, it is the primary and only drive. It loads the master boot record that load the NT Loader boot code that is then configured to load the operating system from the primary partition on the primary drive. When you boot from the USB drive, you make it the Primary drive. You then tell it to load the MBR fromt the secondary drive. The secondary

Allow the grub loader to (optionally) support using a GRUB menu file. For example chain fs grub=stage2,grub.conf will load GRUB's stage2 and pass the (absolute) path to the file "grub.conf" in the Syslinux filesystem to GRUB's stage2. The path is passed to stage2 in GRUB's device/partition syntax (eg, "(hd0,1)/foo"). Note that we don't check whether the

Hi, I am using syslinux-4.00-pre24, -pre27 and -pre31. chain.c32 fails for pre27 and pre31 for particular configs ... shown below. 1) works on pre24, fails with error message "Chainboot failed!" for pre27 and pre31 LABEL local MENU DEFAULT MENU LABEL Local Boot ... (skip PXE boot) KERNEL chain.c32 APPEND hd0 0 2) works on all three. LABEL local

When booting windows I currently have to use an extracted boot sector to chain-load the OS, is there any merit to creating a method to execute NTLDR directly using a /reverse engineered/ version of the boot sector?

Hello all. Here[1] is a branch where chain.c32 can chain-boot a partition on a GPT disk when given the partition index. boot: chain hd1 84 (For example.) - Shao Miller [1] http://git.zytor.com/?p=users/sha0/syslinux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/ chain_gpt
