similar to: Syslinux 5.00-pre6: call it a beta

From: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming at intel.com> The first two patches in this series are fixes for bugs reported by someone in #syslinux. The third makes dmitest.c32 actually wait for user input. If no one has any objections/concerns, I'll pull this into the official elflink branch. Matt Fleming (3): core: Print error message if we don't load ldlinux.c32 Clean up $(GPLLIB) leak

I have, hopefully, found and fixed the issue with non-kernel binaries that appeared in 3.35. As a result, I have pushed out 3.36-pre6 and am classifying it as a release candidate. Please try it out, especially if you have had problems with 3.35. ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/boot/syslinux/Testing/ -hpa

Hello I just tested my pxelinux installation with 5.00-pre6. For the installation I did first the same steps as I did with 4.05. I copied the following files out of the archive into my /tftpboot folder: syslinux-5.00-pre6/core/pxelinux.0 syslinux-5.00-pre6/com32/menu/menu.c32 syslinux-5.00-pre6/memdisk/memdisk With only this files, it was not working and I also had to copy this two

From: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming at linux.intel.com> This series includes a patch (PATCH 1/6) that I sent previously but I thought it was worth sending it again since the rest of the series depends on it, and it also gives a bit of context. These cleanups make it simpler to do the big switchover to ELF modules on the elflink branch because the libraries in $LIBS are now contained in one

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,

I'm not seeing how to set this path option? Here is what I get using vesamenu.c32 as an example when moved to a directory outside of the build. The current syslinux 4.06 has all the files in the same directory which is at the root of the cd. ldd vesamenu.c32 linux-gate.so.1 => (0xb77c5000) ../../com32/libutil/libutil_com.c32 => not found ../../com32/lib/libcom32.c32 => not found

Hi folks, Syslinux 5.00 is out in time for the holidays. This release includes a lot of changes from 4.06. I've included the NEWS entries below, which highlight the major changes. Lots of assembly code has been rewritten in C, which makes further development much easier (and also really helped for the 'firmware' abstraction that appears in Syslinux-6.00-pre1). So be on the lookout

1) mk/syslinux.mk runs a shell to make a temp file gcc_ok.$$$$.tmp (perhaps in the wrong directory) while several Makefiles have an include rule for *.tmp which I believe is causing some occasional parallel build issues. make[3]: Entering directory `/home/gene/s/g/bios/memdump' gcc_ok.6333.tmp:1: warning: NUL character seen; rest of line ignored gcc_ok.6333.tmp:1: *** missing separator.

Hi all, I have just released syslinux-3.70-pre25. Unless someone has something big and scary that either I have managed to miss or was just stumbled over, I'm going to release 3.70 final some time between tomorrow and Monday. Thus, *please holler now* if there are any stop-ship problems still known... -hpa

I have decided to make SYSLINUX 2.10-pre6 a release candidate. Please test it out if you can; if it works OK I will release it as 2.10 some time in the middle of the week. Thanks! -hpa
