Hello, A couple of months back there was this message on the list. http://syslinux.zytor.com/archives/2010-October/015459.html I have exactly the same result on just a few types of machines. Acer Tavelmate 8372 and 5742 InsydeH2O Bios v1.05 Broadcom UNDI PXE 2.1 V 14.0.8 It started after I upgrades pxelinux.0 to version 3.86 Versions tested and got the recursing: 3.86, 3.85, 3.84 and 3.83 On

Hello, on a somewhat recent machine (Dell T1600) I'm unable to use my usual setup (pxelinux as a boatloader also for local OS - typically windows). The BIOS is capable of using UEFI, but this is turned off. Unfortunately all I get is a message telling me that pxelinux is unable to boot from local disk. The config entry looks like this: LABEL local MENU LABEL OS installed on local disk

I've got $SUBJ almost working except for the DOS bit where the CD needs to be read. My pxe config: label Firmware menu label Update IPMI firmware kernel memdisk append keeppxe raw iso initrd=<isofile> The ISO is about 400Mb, and works fine when I boot it from an actual CDROM drive. It also boots fine over PXE, I can see FreeDOS being booted up etc. The problem is - once

There is a problem with the last line of DISPLAY files in Syslinux 5.01. *** syslinux.cfg start *** DEFAULT cat1 PROMPT 1 F1 help.txt LABEL cat1 COM32 cat.c32 APPEND help.txt *** syslinux.cfg end *** *** help.txt start *** LINE 1 OF help.txt LINE 2 OF help.txt LINE 3 OF help.txt *** help.txt end *** Note that the last line in "help.txt" is "LINE 3 OF help.txt" and

I have seen posts about this problem, but have had trouble finding how/if it was resolved. I am trying to upgrade from syslinux-3.11 to syslinux-3.86 on RHEL5. On 3.86, when it performs a local boot from hard disk, it just keeps looping back into PXE boot again instead of booting from the hard disk. It will perform a system install just fine, but when it switches to localboot after the install,

Hi, I'm trying to install debian-6.0.5-amd64-CD-1.iso from USB memory-stick. The problem is, that Debian-Installer is not able to "Detect and mount CD-ROM" during the installation process. The USB memory-stick is a 2GB model containing MBR and FAT32 file system: # fdisk -lu /dev/sdb Disk /dev/sdb: 2013 MB, 2013265920 bytes 62 heads, 62 sectors/track, 1022 cylinders, total 3932160

Another week, *another* -pre. I'm really planning on this being the last one. The shortlog is appended below. Apart from a better fix for the "disabled menu entry" bug it's only documentation updates. Testing from the last -pre's has been pretty quiet, so as soon as Ady and Matt have tested this one and confirmed that the disabled entry bug is finally gone I'll do the

Finally, the 4.06 release is out there. Thanks to everyone who helped by submitting patches and testing! Peter snuck in a change at the last minute that fixes the GCC 4.7 MinGW struct layout incompatibility in a different way. Here are the highlights of this release, Changes in 4.06: * Support for NTFS, by Paulo Alcantara. * EXTLINUX: more robust device detection, allow user to

Hi, The menu timeout isn't cancelled but restarted when there's only a single item in the menu and I try to move the selection. The selection flashes but of course does not move. Tested with pxelinux under QEMU: $ qemu -net nic -boot n -net user,tftp=tftpboot,bootfile=/pxelinux.0 pxelinux.cfg/default: UI menu.c32 TIMEOUT 100 LABEL single KERNEL blah Adding another menu item

Hi all, Apple's LLVM Source Tools and Program Analysis teams are now looking for exceptional interns for summer 2015! These are paid internships based onsite at Apple's main campus in Cupertino, California, USA. Internships last 12 weeks, with internships starting in May or later (start dates are flexible). During the internship, interns will work directly with members of Apple's

Hello. I've been testing pxelinux.0 (4.04-pre14) on some laptops: - HP EliteBook 6930P with BIOS F.18. - HP EliteBook 8440P with BIOS F.06. - Dell Latitude E4310 with BIOS A06. When booting pxelinux.0, the machines first display some random letters in different colors and then reboot. We've been using 4.02 for some time without problems. I've tested 4.03 too and it seems to work.

If there is anything that you think should have been in Syslinux 4.04 which isn't there please holler now. -hpa -- H. Peter Anvin, Intel Open Source Technology Center I work for Intel. I don't speak on their behalf.

So it turns out that -pre13 was quite buggy after all. Once I started running the list of tests that I described in my email, a bunch of those bugs came to heed. Now I think I've fixed them, and so have released -pre14. I have also formally decided to call the final release 3.00 when it's ready. Between code base rewrite + EXTLINUX + libcom32 + simple menu, there is plenty of

I get this error trying to compile current git: nasm -O9999 -f elf -g -F stabs -DDATE_STR="'0x484e9ecd'" \ -DHEXDATE="0x484e9ecd" \ -l pxelinux.lsr -o pxelinux.o pxelinux.asm pxelinux.asm:2693: fatal: unable to open include file `pxeidle.inc' make[1]: *** [pxelinux.o] Fehler 1 - Sebastian

This version fixes the "PXELINUX reboots immediately on error" problem. This actually turned out to be due to a NASM bug; I have changed the code slightly to avoid the problem. Please, people, test this out so I can release a final... ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/boot/syslinux/Testing/ -hpa

This release includes Murali's menu positioning patch; it is otherwise identical to 2.09-pre13. I will release this as 2.09 on Sunday unless I hear objections. Note that I've effectively been out of the loop, moving houses, for almost a month, so if there is something I'm forgetting please tell me... -hpa

It really turned out not to be all that hard to do, after all. I definitely feel a bit silly, but there you have it. Please test this out as 3.50 really is way overdue to get out the door. -hpa

I have pushed out what I hope to be the last release candidate for Syslinux 4.04. Please test it if you have the chance as I would like to have 4.04 out as soon as possible. -hpa -- H. Peter Anvin, Intel Open Source Technology Center I work for Intel. I don't speak on their behalf.

Hi, After fixing the --with-tcp-wrappers problem I decided to look closer at configure.in and found that --with-md5-passwords didn't work either.
