PXE-booting Xen using PXELINUX
Hi all,
A number of people have posted to the Xen lists recently wanting to
network-boot Xen on machines whose NICs are not supported by GRUB. I''ve
been writing a module for PXELINUX that will allow it to boot Xen
directly over the network on PXE-enabled machines, without relying on
any hacks (mbootpack, &c.), or needing to write/port any device drivers.
I have a version of it

Using pxelinux mboot.c32 to multiboot Solaris
Hi All,
Now that we have multiboot capable pxelinux, thanks to mboot.c32,
I decided to try and remove pxegrub from my x86 jumpstart infrastructure
since, in theory, pxelinux can now do it all.
The problem I'm having is I'm not very sure I'm following Tim's documentation
correctly... I'm not 100% what comes after the --- and whether the Sun kernel
needs it's arguments

PXELINUX and http?

Ah, ok, the wording in 5.10 change log is a little ambiguous then...It
seems to imply (to me at least) that http support was added to
pxelinux.0 with an old TCP stack, but lpxelinux.0 has http with a new
TCP stack.

PXELINUX problems with 6.03-pre12
Hi,
I have been using 6.03-pre11 lpxelinux.0 to deliver standard (TFTP) and HTTP based vmlinuz and kernel images.
Things are working fine.
When I upgraded the same to 6.03-pre12 it stopped working.
On the console of the machine that is booting, is stalls infinitely at the line:

Thanks, that works! How do I use that in the generic case?
The ?pxebsd.0? file can be called as?
? PXE loader
? COMBOOT (16-bit)

VMWare ESX mboot.c32
Hi.
VMWare has an own/modified mboot.c32, which is capable of using
Configfiles. This mboot.c32 is on every Installsystem for their ESXi
hypervisor install-iso.
Until syslinux 4.07 this works with pxelinux out of the box.
Since 5.x this mboot.c32 will not work anymore.
There seem to be more modifications than only a parameter "-c".
Does anyone has an idea what has changed so this

PXELINUX and http?
According to the Changelog for 5.01, pxelinux.0 can load boot files via http. But I can't get it to work.
Specifying http as my boot path, just gives me an invalid file or directory error.
ie:
KERNEL http://10.48.128.56/rhel-server/rhel-server-6.4-x86_64/vmlinuz
If I do a wget on the http path, I can get vmlinuz just fine.
What am I doing wrong?
I also tried copying lpxelinux.0 over

mboot.c32/Xen compatible
Hello all,
I'm new on the list and hope this question isn't out of order.
I'm booting Xen with mboot.c32 but with 100mb/s cards. I want to
upgrade to 1000mb/s.
I haven't got the biggest budget to trial and error new network cards
so I'd like to buy the right card first time.
I think this can be a bit tricky from 100mb/s card experience. A

Phew, what does that mean? It's their "bootx64.efi".
Running "file" on it says it's an "MS-DOS executable".

Patch to add Symbols/segments loader for mboot.c
Hello,
I use Tim's mboot.c32 to load multiboot kernels over pxelinux. However, some
kernels require the symbol table and other information in the ELF section
header table to be able to load properly. This functionality is not present
in mboot.c now, so I added support for it.
The patch is attached. It would be great if you can push this into the next
release of syslinux so ELF multiboot

Using pxelinux mboot.c32 to jumpstart a Solaris host
Hi all,
I'm trying to use mboot.c32 to build our Solaris machines but the problem we are getting is the network interface doesn't get configured. It would boot in to the miniroot and then drops in to a shell. At the shell, if I configure the interface via dhcp it would continue on with the jumpstart.
This is the first time we are using syslinux (version 4.04) and looking at the

Solaris / OpenSolaris
I'm having some difficulties pxe booting Solaris. So far I have tried
the mboot.c32, and the pxegrub shipped with Solaris. At first I had some
problems with blksize, but this disapeared when I changed from atftpd to
tftpd-hpa. The point at which I'm stuck now is, the kernel and
x86.microroot/x86.miniroot is loaded but then VMWare crashes. I might
try with real hardware, but I thought
