Hi, I've tried to compile syslinux under mandriva, and the compilation always bails out because it hasn't created win32/syslinux.exe. As far as I understand, the build will work fine on a Windows / mingw installation, but not Linux. I've modified my Makefile to remove the win32/syslinux.exe from the build, and it now builds OK. This happened on 3.3.6 and also on 4.0pre.

virtio_balloon.h exports "u16" and "u64" to userspace. Use "__u16" and "__u64" instead. Signed-off-by: Paul Bolle <pebolle at tiscali.nl> --- 0) Tested with a kernel build. 1) Both types are used in this header for quite some time now. So is my patch flawed or doesn't userspace actually use virtio_balloon.h? include/uapi/linux/virtio_balloon.h

Signed-off-by: Paul Bolle <pebolle at tiscali.nl> --- syslinux accepts a --directory (or -d) option. As far as I can see this option only affects the installation location of the ldlinux.sys file. (It also affects the boot sector that syslinux generates, but that is not something user visible.) Currently man/syslinux.1 talks about the "SYSLINUX control files". That is not entirely

Dear Syslinux bootloader list, I'm running into a few issues concerning Syslinux modules here, hoping you can answer one or more of the following questions: * Where's "ifmemdsk.c32" ? 4.05, 4.06pre1 and latest 4.10pre seem to lack it. Only the "ifmemdsk.c" file, which is likely sourcecode. Not seeing any "ifmemdsk.cbt" legacy comboot module. * Do COM32

From: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming at linux.intel.com> Move the MCONFIG files into a mk/ directory and give them more descriptive names. This is purely a cosmetic change to make the 'include' directives a bit more coherent by making it obvious exactly which MCONFIG file we're including. For example, in com32/lua/src/Makefile we exchange the line, include ../../MCONFIG for the

In Syslinux 6.03-pre6: _ The txt/html/*.html files are currently created 3 times, one for each firmware. I think they should be created only once (under the main txt/html/ directory), just as the rest of the documentation is. In that case, the <respective_firmware>/txt/html/ subdirectories should not even be created. _ The bios/dosutil/ directory contains copybs.com and eltorito.sys,

ldlinux.sys uses a working directory. The documentation seems to improve if that fact is made explicit. So the working directory is added to the documentation (with a bit of vagueness and possibly not entirely correct, to keep it readable). While we're at it, also convert the name ldlinus.sys to lowercase everywhere, even if it's clear its name is used in a DOS context. Signed-off-by:
