similar to: Booting a USB drive

I was working on making a 40gb laptop ide drive bootable via syslinux as the drive is in an external hd enclosure. syslinux installed on a 100 mb bootable fat32 partition and when I tried to boot from the drive, I got a syslinux prompt which was correct as I had not done a config file yet. I later found a 60GB laptop ide drive and put the larger drive in the enclosure and tried to install

I've begun working on a syslinux project with a portable usb drive. Up to this point I was a pxelinux.0 user only. My virtualmachine system (Oracle VirtualBox) can netboot so testing config file changes was no big deal. VBox is currently unable to boot from a usb drive despite documentation that says it is possible. Is there a windows based tool that can scan and test a syslinux

I'm working on a debugging/diagnostic image in order to debug/diagnose an issue with very recent machines using a UFD (USB Flash Drive) which really _should_ be partitioned but someone decides to be a little too quick and uses it raw. (FAT* file system on /dev/sdb rather than /dev/sdb1). Anyways, I've got a successful first iteration that'll say what the BIOS thinks about geometry and

I found on some CPUs an ACPI based HVM chews up a lot of CPU time versuses an APIC HVM, so in Windows I would change the computer type in device manager to "Standard PC" and disable acpi in the domain config. -Ross ----- Original Message ----- From: xen-users-bounces@lists.xensource.com <xen-users-bounces@lists.xensource.com> To: xen-users@lists.xensource.com

Hi I'm finding it takes ages to download a roaming profile from the server when I log into Win2k or XP. A 4Mb profiles typically takes about 2 minutes (and 2 minutes to write back when I log out). I did a test and copied the profile directory from the server to my PC. Running under Win98 takes 1-2 minutes. Under 2K/XP it takes nearly 5 minutes. However, a single file of 4Mb only takes about

From: Gene Cumm <gene.cumm at gmail.com> Fix several calls to more_printf() as eventually printf() is called without a literal string which generate warnings with gcc and lead to errors when -Werror is active.

HDT 0.3.3 has just been released. This release aims at solving some CLI bugs and adds a some new memory mapping detection. I'd like to thanks Dag Wieers for reporting many CLI bugs & pierre for his work on the memory mapping. Here come the changelog: - A new memory mode Memory items can be reached via the new "memory>" mode. - Memory mapping display Pierre did integrate

Hello, I'm not quite sure I understand how do you use HDT for dumping over tftp server. The wiki on dumping does not offer much details on how to set this up. >From my understanding is you need to run pxelinux somewhere but being that HDT is a bootable cd ISO, I don't see how I can get HDT up from a TFTP server without the need to install something on that TFTP server. Is there a more

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

The -pre2 version of HDT 0.3.6 is out. Gert was a great source of motivation for making that -pre2. He found many bugs and gave nice ideas. Thanks Gert for your time and your _many_ tests. This release will be more or less what will be included in the incoming syslinux 3.84. Since -pre1, here come the Changelog * Reporting CPU L1 & L2 cache * Report "Hw.Virt" in cpu

Hello, I registered at Wiki but can't post on it. So, I just registered on this mailing list, just to request a new fonctionnality in HDT : - Adding a simple benchmark test, like https://cpubenchmark.net/cpu_list.php. It's useful to determine which distro/desktop I can install on an old computer. PS : I asked Linux Mint to add HDT to their ISO and they done it (since Linux Mint 19.3).

Hi Yeah I ended up figuring it out My usage for the tool will be to gather hardware specs of new servers that we receive and servers we have in storage I will then see if I can script something to phrase the dumps to update our inventory tool. Our main issue is that gathering information manually by opening the server and having to locate each parts is time consuming and being humans we are

I'm back to trying to get my MGE Elipse (USB) talking to my FreeBSD system. It used to work fine on Linux (quite some time ago), and was sort-of working with the last release of nut. The system would see the UPS, but couldn't get reliable data from it. Now that I have upgraded to 2.2, I no longer see the UPS at all with nut. The usbdevs command shows it: drich at morpheus|505>

This patch builds a floppy image with contains HDT, so users of GRUB or GRUB4DOS can use HDT too, without installing Syslinux. When you compile Syslinux, this floppy image isn't build automatically. To build it, runthe following from the extracted Syslinux source: $ cd ./com32/hdt $ make hdt.img As suggested by Pierre-Alexandre Meyer, all extra files required for building the floppy
