similar to: Please test 4.10-pre17

Hello everybody, setting up a netboot server for a really huge network I decided to go with what will be syslinux 4.10 to get support for http transfers. The setup works on my notebook, booting another notebook directly connected. However it fails with a more complex setup: A virtual machine on the second notebook bridged to the ethernet device does not boot, systems from other networks with a

Hi, I finally managed to test pxelinux 4.10 pre17 in our VMware environment and can report that HTTP booting seems to work reliably now. Downloads are fairly fast. As a side note, rosh "ls" and "pwd" commands now work as expected with a HTTP TFTP prefix, cool! I'll leave it in production use now and report about any further issues. Can you already tell when a 4.10

I believe I'm seeing a bug in lpxelinux.0 6.03-pre17 but I need some advice on how to isolate and troubleshoot this. (I can't try pre18 at the moment, but did try 4.07 and 5.10 and saw similar behavior, also with pxelinux.0, so although I'll give pre18 a try soon, some isolation/troubleshooting advice will be a good education no matter what.) To get to our PXE-launched tools from

Shantanu, let's continue here. You first noticed this on a Dell OptiPlex 755. I think it covers all Dell OptiPlex/Latitude/Precision models that are PCIe based with Intel LoM (LAN on motherboard) utilizing the BIOS PXE OROM, based on the similarity of these systems. The symptoms are that PXELINUX requests pxelinux.cfg/<UUID> by TFTP (but it might not strictly be a TFTP issue) when not

I'm going to try to push 4.05 out this week, so please holler if there is anything critical missing. -hpa -- H. Peter Anvin, Intel Open Source Technology Center I work for Intel. I don't speak on their behalf.

I think I finally have nailed down the problems with TFTP on the 4.10 branch, and so I have released 4.10-pre20. Please let me know if you have hardware on which 4.05/4.06-pre3 works, and 4.10-pre20 does not. -hpa -- H. Peter Anvin, Intel Open Source Technology Center I work for Intel.

My bad. I tried again, and in 4.07 we do get further. We couldn't boot all the way because, it seems, using

I just tried kbdmap.c32, got a format error Keyboard map file format error boot: the file I attempted to use was from sudo dumpkeys > keymap, and copied into /var/lib/tftpboot I'll happily add whatever knowledge I get to the wiki-page for kbdmap FWIW, I tried this cuz my cursor keys were not working with menu.c32, so any hints to solve this problem would be great this is with

So far I tested PXELINUX from 4.10-pre12, 4.10-pre9 and 4.10-pre6. The first two take a long time with a TFTP file not found and eventually find my file but error out (presumably to kaboom). The last takes a long time, does a lot of retransmitted packets (didn't watch the first two), then eventually loads the file but continues this behavior for TFTP and HTTP transfers. This is on VMware

Hi, thanks for writing cptime, after manually adding it to the Makefile of a lwip git checkout it compiled fine (same about prdhcp) (only isohybrid complained about a missing uuid/uuid.h)... I have a 64bit VM with VMXNET3 and go there this result: [image: cptime.png] (can everybody see the picture?) The download of a 180MB large file (Parted Magic initrd) takes between 60 and 72 seconds,

Hi all, wasnt sure whether this was the best place to put this information; but something seems to have gone 'backwards' in the later pre-releases of 6.03 regarding network booting. below are results of me testing - i did each a few times to make sure they are valid results. hope it helps identify something that's gone awry ? so far, 6.03 pre11 and pre13 (excluding efi32) seem most

Hello, I have been testing James'' GPLPV drivers and found excellent performance when using iperf but have been having issues when trying to download a file from a shared folder on my Windows 2003 Enterprise HVM to any other system whether it is linux or windows. Basically my initial iperf tests were showing 937Mbits/sec down and 345Mbits/sec up but when I try to copy a 2GB file

Let's try to get this thing released. Dag: will you do your RPM buildathon on this drop? Changes in 3.74: * New UI directive, which allows a more natural way to specify a menu system (or not.) With the UI directive specifying the menu system, the DEFAULT directive can be used to select the default entry inside the menus. * kbdmap.c32: new module

Hello, In my testing environment I have two VMs on ESXi 5.0. VM A = dhcp/tftp/PXE/http server, running CentOS 6.2. Syslinux 4.04 with the included gpxelinux.0. VM B = PXE boot client. If I run CentOS 6.2 also on the VM B, I can easily transfer 50+ MB/sec over http between the VMs (wget, links). Now, if I PXE boot gpxelinux.0 on the VM B, and start to download bigger initrd image over http the

I tried isolinux 3.10-pre20 on an Acer Aspire 1501LMi notebook and a Shuttle FS-40 desktop box; it fails on both, simply hanging after printing the first line. Last known good version is 3.10-pre16; will try pre17-pre19 when I have some time.
