problem booting files with .bin in their name (eg. memtest86+.bin)
It took me forever to figure out why I couldn't tftp boot into
memtest86+, I had the file "memtest86+.bin" installed into my tftproot,
and it was being loaded when I selected that menu item, but it would
result in a series of repeating numbers on the left hand side of the
screen.
Eventually, after trying a million different things, and then asking

Hello all,
At the end of README.menu there is :

It is also possible to load a secondary configuration file, to get to
another menu. To do that, invoke menu.c32 with the name of the
secondary configuration file.

Typo in "HowTos/PXE/Gparted_PXE"
Dear all,
Inside the "HowTos/PXE/Gparted_PXE" wiki document, the "tftproot"
directory should be "tftpboot", and the hyphens could be removed in the
following line:
Add the following lines to the pxelinux-configuration-file
(/tftproot/pxelinux.cfg/default by default)

Problem with pxelinux 5.10 and memtest86+ 4.20
Deal developers,
I'd like to follow the thread

but change the subject to 'pxelinux 5.10 and memtest86+ 4.20' and
provide more test cases.
The pxelinux before version 5, e.g. version 4.06, worked very well with
memtest86+ 4.20, all my PXE client machines, including VMWare

Version 5.01 not passing kernel command line args to memtest86+as it can understand
Hello,
I'm trying to pass the serial port options to memtest86+ using
Syslinux 5.01 but is not working. Debugging the memtest86+,
the check at main.cpp function static void parse_command_line(void)
if (*OLD_CL_MAGIC_ADDR != OLD_CL_MAGIC)

Is being evaluated to true. What should I do? There is a way to

memtest86+.. How do I load it with pxelinux?
I've just spent at least half an hour swapping files, downloading things
and stuffing around with memtest86 and memtest86+. I can't get either to
start from pxelinux.
Currently I have "memtest86" as the filename, and i'm trying to load it
direct (not trying to use memdisk or anything). This just results in a
near instant reboot.
Am I doing something wrong? I can't

hints about modules needed when migrating to newer releases
Hi,
I am migrating a 4.06 pxelinux setup to a 6.02 one. After changing
pxelinux.0 to the new version, I got "Failed to load ldlinux.c32".
I looked in my debian provided /usr/share/doc/pxelinux/README.txt
(which I think is a copy of doc/pxelinux.txt) and didn't find any
hints. I also looked at

memdisk and floppy images on 4801
Im trying to boot memtest86 via pxelinux, memdisk,
I found this advice on http://forum.x86-secret.com/viewtopic.php?t=2906
folks are making the image match a floppy size by one of the following:

or
dd bs=360k count=1 conv=sync if=memtest86+-1.xx.bin|gzip > memtest.gz
I did the former, it did suppress the warning/errors I saw
