similar to: [PATCH] core: remove HAS_LOCALBOOT

I found that the version of isolinux.bin (and the debug version too) doesn't work on my Via C3 system. I get the SAY text, but never the boot: prompt. C-A-Del doesn't reboot either. The debug version does not print anything after announcing it's opening the config file. Only the single SAY text follows. The cursor sits on the next blank line, useless (no responses to key presses).

On machines with 2GB RAM, pxelinux doesn't seem to work for me. With Intel PXE, I had to limit the memory available to PXE to 768MB RAM. Has anyone tried pxelinux on machines with >= 1GB RAM? How do I limit memory to 768MB for pxelinux? H.J.

... it has a slightly modified version of Paul's VKernelBuf initialization patch. I modified it to initialize the whole buffer instead. I found, on careful reading of the spec, that it's actually possible to patch the DHCP packets in PXE memory. This might help the handling of NBP chainloading in PXELINUX, by making the pathname of the chainloaded file available to itself. I

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

This implements the label completion on tab key idea. It does introduce "labelcompl" as new config keyword. The default value is 0 so it does not change current behaviour. If you press tab with an empty command line it will display all labels. If the command line contains any characters it will display the matching labels. This patch is only intended for testing since i didn't check

I tried to replace display_labels asm code (ui.inc) with new C code (pm_display_labels), but the data i access in command_line doesn't seem to be always up to date. The patch i am working on is only for PXELINUX because of different vkernel structure: diff --git a/core/com32.inc b/core/com32.inc index 111590c..f19df7c 100644 --- a/core/com32.inc +++ b/core/com32.inc @@ -135,6 +135,7 @@

Greetings all, Sorry, resending this with the attachment inline. First of all, a disclaimer: Please forgive my horrible assembly code. This is just a quick munging of code to achieve x86 versus x86_64 detection within pxelinux. So please look at it as a proof of concept and not a real piece of code. :) For example it only works on pxelinux and has no thought for extending it beyond simple x86

Hi. I've ever wondered how nuch timeis left to timeout while waiting at the boot prompt, so I've writen this small patch to show it. This add a configuration command 'showtimeout'. If you like the patch I could improve it (for example to show the timeout in decimal because now it uses the writehex functions) Regards. -- ______ ________ / / \/ /___ ) I N T E G
