This is the initial NTFS file system support for Syslinux :-) The following changes since commit 67954e370003d9bbfd8b58042669f2e9d532636f: ifmemdsk: remove spurious +x bit (2011-08-25 10:58:44 -0700) are available in the git repository at: git://github.com/pcacjr/syslinux.git ntfs-for-hpa Paulo Alcantara (34): Add NTFS filesystem support to Linux and Windows installers Initial

file->offset is used to store position in index root between ntfs_readdir calls. Previously, pointer to buffer was stored in this field. However this buffer is reallocated and read each ntfs_readdir call so the pointer may become incorrect. Now offset in index root rather than pointer is stored in this field.

NTFS $MFT file may be fragmented by itself (and actually is in most cases). However, such a situation was not handled. This patch add support for fragmented $MFT file.

The following is the current change-log for Syslinux 6.03. The final stable version might include additional items. Before the final release, it would be helpful to receive feedback about: _ Any item that should be added or eliminated. _ Any item that should be edited in any way (rewording, technical details...). _ Any item that should not be included. _ Any credit that should be added /

While testing the syslinux-4.06-pre11, I encountered a failure booting Windows Vista using syslinux. Looking at the details of the failing machine, I discovered that the main difference between this machine and the working ones is taht, on this machine, the MFT is fragmented in multiple fragments, and ldlinux.sys is indexed in one of the extended fragments. Does the syslinux NTFS implementation

Greetings, I'm playing around an idea and I'd like to ask you some questions. I'd like to extract the MFT table from a disk image file. The idea is to employ it to build a sort of reverse lookup table which, given a cluster, could retrieve the corresponding file with the related metadata. Such table could be used to optimize the analysis of disk snapshots in order to collect the

Hi everyone, I have released Syslinux 6.03. It is by and large identical to 6.03-pre20. I would like to do a short cycle for 6.04, because 64-bit support for ext4 has come up as a very high priority. Therefore I do not want to stuff too many things into the 6.04 release but hold them for 6.05. Thanks to Ady for most of the changelog. Changes in 6.03: * chain: Fix chainloading on 6.02

So in NTFS, the Master File Table is itself a file. That means it can have extents. An easy way to process its records is thus to read it as a file using functions in core/fs/fs.c. However, the functions in core/fs/fs.c mostly assume the "global," Syslinux, booted-from filesystem ('this_fs'). The Syslinux filesystem drivers try to tie all data to a particular FS instance. So

The "icat" name comes from the employed command line tool which might be replaced at any time with a different implementation. The command name is a bit confusing because it's similar to "cat" but act as "donwload". download_inode is more clear and descriptive.
