In Syslinux 6.03-pre6: _ The txt/html/*.html files are currently created 3 times, one for each firmware.

I would like to implement a replacement MSCDEX driver (based on the replacement in FreeDOS SHSUCDX http://johnson.tmfc.net/freedos/shsucdx.html and SYSLINUX) however instead of talking to disk BIOS calls or PATA chipset I would like it to talk to the NDIS driver and act as a TFTP client simply forfulling application get block requests through TFTP. Its not clear where the ISO9660 CD

I'm running into some issues with regard to isolinux and memdisk, and am not sure where to ask/look in the best way possible. These are DOS-related issues. So here goes: * Can MEMDISK map a imagefile (compressed? harddisk?) to more than (and/or beyond) 4GB of memory? Say you'd have 8/16GBGB and want 4GB available to the user so might as well use the other 4/12GB for MEMDISK. Or max

Hello ALL, I've got a diskless server working (under Gentoo), booting on it works. (a linux session start with no problem.) My Big problem, is to get Memdisk to boot with PXE. In fact memdisk is loaded, but it cannot find the img file. I've tried a lot of thing, but nothing works... tftp use : /diskless the config file for PXE in then in : /diskless/pxelinux.cfg/ the root for the

HI, In http://slint.fr/misc/MacBoot/ you'll find all context information. All files referenced here are stored there. Long story short: once dd-ed on an USB stick the ISO image can boot on a BIOS or EFI machine, but I want it to be able to boot on most x86_64 Macs with an EFI firmware. Unfortunately I get the error message: isohybrid: slint64-14.1.iso: unable to find mac efi image The

Hi, I am trying to build a custom installer for a popular linux distro on MacOS.
