In Syslinux 5-6.02, the "global append" directive is being (unintentionally) ignored in some cases. Updating Syslinux from prior versions, when using a "global append" directive, will cause unexpected results. For example, take the following simple configuration file: *** DEFAULT mykernel APPEND root=/dev/sda2 *** Note that the 'append' line is a global

Hello, At the boot prompt ALLOWOPTIONS 0 is only applied to implicit kernels and not to labels. For configuration which want to allow selection, but prevent customization of the kernel command line, this behaviour is bad. Also the IMPLICIT 0 is applied to both the boot prompt and configuration setting (like DEFAULT); but one could argue that only the command supplied at the prompt make sense to

Hello, I am using lpxelinux.0 (latest stable version 6.03, using the official binaries from kernel.org) to kickstart servers as http transfers really helps over links with poor latencies... These servers are being booted in legacy mode, not in UEFI. This has worked very well until recently. Starting with RHEL 7.5, on some servers, we would see the machine rebooting while pxelinux is in the

Hello, i would like create a bootdisk , that can be boot from Old BIOS, EFI32 and EFI64. But for EFI Boot there is only one directory /EFI/BOOT/ In this directory I can copy BOOTia32.EFI and BOOTx64.EFI. But the *.c32 files for EFI32 & EFI64 , I can install to this directory at the same time. Is there a way to load the *.c32 from different directory ? Or is there a other solution ?

Hi, ?I happily use gpxelinux.0 in subnets where nic-embedded pxe stack can load it from a tftp server pointed by the dhcp daemon. Now I'd like to know the best way to run gpxelinux.0 in a special subnets, where no tftp trafic is allowed, http is served through a reverse proxy, and dhcp is ok. I tried "gpxe on local media (rom/iso/floppy/usb) -> gpxelinux.0" with limited success

Hello. We are using gpxelinux from SYSLINUX 4.02. We recently purchased some HP Proliant BL460c G6 servers with Broadcom BCM 57711 10Gbit NICS. We have a very simple pxelinux.gpxe script compiled into gpxelinux.0: #!gpxe set use-cached 1 dhcp net0 chain http://webserver/gpxe/gpxe.php?IP=${net0/ip} The PHP script dynamically creates a config file that looks something like this: #!gpxe set

Okay guys, This is separate from my last few messages. Along with those attempts, I decided to migrate from pxelinux.0 to gpxelinux.0 in my existing setup. Admittedly I haven't tried previous gpxelinux.0's but I am willing to if someone thinks it would be useful. Everything works as expected with pxelinux.0 of the same version. With gpxelinux.0: TFTP Prefix: Trying to load:

Hi All, I've been enjoying playing with gpxe and gpxelinux, however I have a few questions that I'd love to get some answers for... 1) Will gpxelinux support chain loading of other NBPs without hanging or is this already resolved ? 2) Why does gpxelinux take much longer than pxelinux to enumerate the UUID, MAC address, then hex IP address chop ? 3) Can gpxelinux load gpxe scripts at all

This is worth forwarding to SYSLINUX.

Hi Bootmeisters, I am using gpxelinux.0 + sanboot.c32 to boot a diskless machine into Linux. I would like to use device-mapper-multipath to provide fault tolerant access to its root disk. Although I am able to do this by hardcoding the additional paths in the initrd, it would be better if the bootloader could pass the information in the iBFT (iSCSI Boot Firmware Table). However, at the

I have produced a first cut of integrating gPXE with PXELINUX. This builds, in addition to the usual pxelinux.0, an image called gpxelinux.0 which includes the gPXE network stack. The result is that one can now download images via (almost) any network protocol supported by gPXE, including http. This lets one do fun things like using a CGI or PHP script for the configuration file. SAN

Hi, I found this message in your online mail archive, i have found the same problem and did some research in the past on this. Maybe you would be interested to know it is a problem on any virtualisation product not just ESX. Second it is a problem in gPXE that you embedded in gPXElinux. The problem was build in gPXE after version 0.97 so any gPXElinux build a newer version has this problem. I

IRC user ernini first noticed this. We both tried using gpxe/gpxelinux.0 from Syslinux-4.04-pre22. ernini used pxechain to a commercial NBP which RETs (the same as PXELINUX) and failed. Both of us had success with core/pxelinux.0 from Syslinux-4.04-pre22. For my test, I have a VM in VMware Server 2.0.2 (VMHW v7). I loaded gpxelinux.0 using the VM's built-in PXE ROM. Then I used

Hi All, A while back there was some mention that gpxe may acquire the ability to receive command-line parameters. I'd dearly love if this could become a reality. It would be fantastic if we could have a pxelinux menu config as follows: KERNEL gpxelinux.0 APPEND config http://someserver.net/gpxe-for-this-box.cfg This would solve a huge number of our problems since we don't have the
