Hi, I would be very interested in a possibility to create variables or macros within syslinux. One of the things I would like to have is a way to query DMI/VPD information, and use that as kernel parameters or to influence eg menu's or boot labels (based on system information). One of those very specific needs is to get the MAC address of the first onboard interface (which is available

Hello everyone and best wishes for 2023 :) I have an old *Garmin Drive Smart 50 GPS* and I want to be able to attach it when it is in preboot mode to a VM hosted by a *Debian 11 host*. From what I understand, the preboot mode allows us to flash a firmware before the GPS actually starts (used among other things when the GPS is soft bricked). When I connect the GPS to the host it gives:

hi all, I think Ive successfully merged the lua branch with master, it needed a minor fix to a Makefile, as follows. I couldnt coax it to give me anything via git format-patch <something>, so I got this from qgit: Is there a more correct way to submit this ?? [jimc at harpo syslinux.git]$ more patch diff --combined com32/Makefile index 4a58485,5d1ff44..81e7a16 --- a/com32/Makefile +++

Greetings! I'm planning to implement a new auth driver. It's going to be, in concept, similar to the Lua and CheckPassword drivers, in that it allows an user program to carry out the authentication and user enumeration steps. The rationale is that such a solution would provide better decoupling between Dovecot and the user authentication and enumeration logic. Existing integrated logic

Syslinux 4.01 is a bug fix release for 4.00, but also includes the new experimental lua interpreter, as well as the ifplop module. Changes in 4.01: * ISOLINUX: fix initialization on systems which don't zero low memory. * SYSLINUX/EXTLINUX: fix handing of disk read retries in EDD mode. * ISOLINUX: change the initialization sequence to avoid

playing with hdt on a soekris 4801, Im getting HUGE delays in cpu_detect.

DMI: Many hardware components will not be detected ! 55 mS in detect_dmi CPU: Detecting 0 mS in get_cpu_vendor 0 mS in "intel cpu

Hello ! The first public release of the newest 0.3.x branch is out ! HDT 0.3.1 is now available for download : http://syslinux.zytor.com/wiki/index.php/Hdt_(Hardware_Detection_Tool)#Download Since the last official release (0.2.7 in syslinux 3.75) here come the main changes : 1?) A huge work from pam to rework the CLI. The code is far more scalable and easy to use for developers to extend it.

Hi, thanks for writing cptime, after manually adding it to the Makefile of a lwip git checkout it compiled fine (same about prdhcp) (only isohybrid complained about a missing uuid/uuid.h)... I have a 64bit VM with VMXNET3 and go there this result: [image: cptime.png] (can everybody see the picture?) The download of a 180MB large file (Parted Magic initrd) takes between 60 and 72 seconds,

Hello! I like to PXE boot the 'Dell 32 Bit Diagnostics' tool. I can create a harddisk image with the linux download package. The README of the Package gives an example how to create an memdisk entry for the pxelinux menu system: <quote> Create a Bootable HDD Image File Use of the resulting image to perform a Preboot Execution Environment (PXE) boot into the diagnostics

so I want to install c6.2 x86_64 onto a 2.7TB /dev/sda ... its a virgin machine with no software, using pxe boot. disk druid or whatever seems to only want to let me have like 2tb of default stuff, I'm guessing because its not using GPT? do I need to preboot into a shell or something and use parted before I can install ? -- john r pierce N 37, W 122 santa

Hello I'm learning how to work with Asterisk on an embedded system (MMU-less Blackfin processor, 64MB RAM and 256MB NAND), and was wondering what people use as scripting language to handle calls through the dialplan and AGI, considering the hardware limitations? Ideally, I'd rather use a rich language like PHP or Python, but can those be fit with even their common modules into such small
