Err: "Missing OS" Using altMBR.bin
Hi, I'm trying to use the altmbr.bin that came with 3.80 on an ATA IDE drive.

The first line is coming from syslinux, the final line is my BIOS offering for me to retry. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- PC: Dell D500 notebook, P4 1.4GHz

syslinux and btrfs-formatted dos/MBR partition
For the MBR: I usually don't touch the Microsoft MBR and chainload Linux from the Microsoft bootloader. However while trying to get my btrfs setup to work, I backed up the Microsoft MBR (dd if=/dev/sda bs=440 count=1 of=MBRbackup.bin) and I installed the syslinux MBR. I tried several ways: - with the script provided by Arch: syslinux-install_update -i -a -m - manual method with mbr.bin (first

2.0.3: character set problem
I've already posted about this to the samba list (19990201) then to samba-bugs (19990301); no response, so I retry here. I have character set = iso8859-1 client codepage = 850 With samba 1.9.18p8: smbstatus showed the filenames with localized characters ok (ie: libert?.txt); smbclient was ok.

[How-To?] Using Syslinux AltMBR + TrueCrypt System Encryption (RFE: swap drive ID's)
Just achieved success using syslinux to multi-OS boot, including a WinXP System (boot) partition that's been encrypted with TrueCrypt (TC). You'll need syslinux version 3.81-pre13 or newer to get a working altmbr.bin file. I used: http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/boot/syslinux/Testing/syslinux-3.81-pre13.zip Background: I started with a 'normal' multi-OS boot setup as

[PATCH nbdkit] tests/test-truncate4.sh: Rewrite to use nbdsh.
The old test relied on issuing an asynchronous command to a qemu-io subprocess, requiring a sleep to ensure that the command had been carried out. ‘sleep 1’ was not long enough on s390x as you can see from this partial trace: + exec + qemu-io -f raw nbd:unix:/tmp/tmp.jqOZGj6dnX + exec + echo 'Reading from connection A, try 1' Reading from connection A, try 1 +

syslinux and btrfs-formatted dos/MBR partition
Hello Gene, thanks for your reply. Yes BIOS mode. The config wants a menu, which loads fine under ext4 and not under btrfs. Under btrfs I have also tried to remove the syslinux.cfg file altogether (which should trigger the boot: prompt if I am not mistaken) and the result is the same: only the copyright line appears and no prompt. The three letter sequence is EDD. The disk is 160GB, here is the
