similar to: Slow timeout

Hello! I just started using Linux and I like the possibilities it offers. I'm using Suse Linux (no MS Windows installed at all). I also discovered that syslinux is capable of making a USB pendrive bootable (with graphic menus). This is very nice. Since I'm a Windows user (up until now), I have some questions: 1 - I already downloaded syslinux 3.82 How do I install it on my pen drive

Hi All, I have successfully configure the PXE and its working fine, the problem is that after timeout in the following msg Automatic boot in # second the screen stuck/hang there showing the above message or the menu if we choose to selection from menu until image is loaded from network.

Hello, I notice a bug in syslinux 6.01 ( bios version ) when I install it in a USB flash drive ( FAT32 partition ) and when I want to boot this USB flash drive with a gigabyte motherboard ( GA-P31-DS3L ), I setup my usb flash drive ( 4 Gb ) like this in windows XP : syslinux.exe -m -a -i -d /boot/syslinux H: then I create a syslinux.cfg menu and I add these files : chain.c32 libcom32.c32

I've have my scripts to a better state, including installing/using qemu to uefi and legacy boot the usb stick for testing. It mostly works for me, but the "wget a tarball of binaries" step isn't going to sit well with

Nice to see the venerable syslinux updated to version 3.35. I did happen to encounter an issue with the latest release though. I performed 'syslinux -f' on a 32MB USB drive and all seemed well...until I tried to boot from it. Error message and drive details below: - - - /error message: SYSLINUX 3.35 2007-01-28 EBIOS Loading Invalid or corrupt kernel image. boot: /bootable USB drive

Hello, I think I found another problem with gfxboot, and I think it is completely unrelated to the 'packed archive' issue. Again I tried using gfxboot with the Ubuntu gfxboot archive, this time with EFI64, using a real EFI-capable machine. I first verified that everything else actually works by commenting out 'ui gfxboot bootlogo' and got a working menu. Uncommented the line

I want to eufi boot this image: http://cdn-fastly.deb.debian.org/debian/dists/testing/main/installer-amd64/current/images/hd-media/boot.img.gz there is a bug against it: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=913523 I'd like to fix the resulting usb stick for my use, and also fix it in a way that can be used to fix the upstream bug. I'm trying to follow the guids

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:

With the new 3.01 and 3.07 version I found a big slowdown booting from USB devices. On my PC it takes more than 2 minutes to load the kernel and the initrd filesystem. Compared with the previous behaviour of syslinux 2.13 with takes only 10 seconds or little more. The BIOS boots in FDD mode (DriveNumber variable is 0). I've also tried to disable the EDD support in the source. But the boot
