It is now possible to build a bootable floppy image which contains HDT, with my patch applied to Erwans HDT branch: http://git.zytor.com/?p=users/erwan/hdt.git;a=commit;h=16b37fe2266c920087f88cdec94243b71218d871 Unpack the Syslinux archive and build whole Syslinux first, then cd to ./com32/hdt/ and make hdt.img $ make $ cd ./com32/hdt/ $ make hdt.img Now you have a 2.88 MB floppy image which

Hello all. Again I call upon the greats of this mailing list to help me with an issue related to MEMDISK - notably when paired with various Dell OptiPlex and Latitude systems. The issue presented itself sometime ago and I best dealt with it by remaining with version 3.83 of the SYSLINUX package. But valuing the improved changes fostered by newer versions, I would prefer to move forward with

Hi. I'm working on replacing a PXELINUX/MEMDISK loaded DOS based installation image with a PXELINUX/MEMDISK loaded WinPE ISO image. So far everything seems to work well (appending "bigraw" to memdisk solved booting problems on several machines), but I kind of miss the option of using getargs.com to get/set environment variables from the memdisk command line. Is there any way to

Hello Erwan and others, I am running HDT from grub2 with memdisk. I have informed the success of booting hdt to the grub2 list. Some developers are very much interested to this issue and they are showing their interest to make a glue between com32 and grub2 so that hdt can be loaded without memdisk. It is really very exciting to have hdt as an inbuilt feature of grub2. Could any one kindly

I have updated syslinux in Parted Magic's test version to the 5.10 release. With 4.06 I booted plop like this: LINUX /boot/plpbt/plpbt.bin Now it says /boot/plpbt/plpbt.bin... ok Booting kernel failed: Invalid argument Other "extras" like IPXE, HDT, memtest86+, chntpw, Super Grub Disk, etc... all work with 5.10. Revert to 4.06 and plop works again. Is this a problem with syslinux

Hello everyone, this is my first mail. I am trying to pxe boot an ISO CD. I configured DHCP and TFTP. In DHCP config file I define the boot folder as filename "pxelinux.0"; In TFTP config file in /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default I wrote the boot option as LABEL ccc LINUX memdisk INITRD ccc.iso APPEND raw Now I have some problems and parts I don't understand. 1) I downloaded and

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:

From: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming at intel.com> The first two patches in this series are fixes for bugs reported by someone in #syslinux. The third makes dmitest.c32 actually wait for user input.

Hello! I'm trying to chain a ISO file in UEFI mode, Do you have any release for Memdisk for UEFI? If you don't, what do you recommend me? Thanks a lot! Diego

Hi, I was wondering whether it is technically possible to go back from eg. DOS or Linux directly to the bootloader (instead of rebooting the hardware). We currently have 2 images (one DOS and one Linux) that need to be started before loading a system. They do things like disable PXE on NICs (using an Intel DOS tool), verify the correctness of the network patchings and validate if the

Good day Gert Hulselmans, You had reported to me at one point that MEMDISK -> .ISO -> ISOLINUX had failed under certain circumstances. I just noticed with a MEMDISK 3.86 that specifying the "iso" option on the command-line actually resulted in the .ISO getting BIOS drive number 0xFF. I had to specify "iso harddisk=224 pause" to confirm that it resulted in 0xE0 (hd96).

I'm looking to get something of a generic CLI prompt function/libarary into Syslinux for use in a COM32. I'm looking for the following: 1) Line Editing with proper wrapping. Currently, gPXE and HDT both have provisions in place for line editing however they both can not handle line wrapping appropriately. 2) Tab completion. Tab completion of filenames would be a goal but not a

A kind request for help please. MEMDISK is causing an issue with the Dell OptiPlex GX280 and GX620 platforms. Booting a PC-DOS/Ghost, disk image is successful (and proper) when using version 3.83. See results below: MEMDISK 3.83: Ramdisk at 0x07eeaa00, length 0x007bc000 command line: initrd=images/ghostclient/280_620/osbootc.img BOOT_IMAGE=memdisk MEMDISK: Image seems to have fractional end

Hello syslinuxers I'm stuck with a scientific problem which gives me headaches: I have a laptop (Gateway MX3410) which has a SD memory card reader. Recently an interesting thought crossed my mind: why don't I setup a 2GB SD card as a harddrive and put some rescue tools on it. So I dug on the net and I came across the idea of using memdisk to boot floppy images without the need of a
