Package: xen-utils-4.1 Version: 4.1.3-7 Severity: normal pygrub looks for extlinux config files "/boot/isolinux/isolinux.cfg" and "/boot/extlinux.conf", but the default Debian installation uses the config file "/boot/extlinux/extlinux.conf".

Package: xen-utils-4.1 Version: 4.1.3-7 Severity: normal The function is_disk_image in /usr/lib/xen-4.1/bin/pygrub at line 45 distinguishes a partitioned disk from a partition by looking for 0xaa55 at offset 0x1fe in the image, but this is the bootsector signature, not the partition table signature. extlinux and other bootloaders put this signature there on bootable partitions (which don't

Package: xen-utils-4.1 Version: 4.1.3-7 Severity: normal The grub.cfg created by a default Debian installation uses many configuration statements that pygrub does not recognize, and pygrub is unable to find any kernel to load. ...Marvin -- System Information: Debian Release: 7.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (990, 'testing'), (500, 'stable-updates'), (500,

Package: xen-utils-common Version: 4.0.0-1 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch I am not a gawk/mawk expert, but I looked carefully at the few uses of gawk that I saw in /etc/xen/scripts/vtpm-common.sh and network-bridge, and I did not see anything that was gawk-specific. It would be nice if they could be changed to awk and the dependency on gawk removed. base-files is Essential: yes and it

When I try to boot my system using extlinux I get the error: EXTLINUX 3.51 2007-06-10 EBIOS Copyright (C) 1994-2007 H. Peter Anvin Could not find kernel image: linux boot: ???????????????????????????????? I've searched the archives and it would appear that extlinux can't find the extlinux.conf file.... Is there something glaring that I am missing? TIA - Phil I have a 32MB CF card

Hi, I'm trying to build extlinux statically, but no matter what CFLAGS or OPTFLAGS I set in the Makefiles I get bios/extlinux/extlinux: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.24, BuildID[sha1]=ef970f59a48b226b2397b73a56e02a73b79c5f0a, not stripped I have tried adding OPTFLAGS= -static to the extlinux/Makefile as well as

Hello, We are experiencing a strange behaviour on an embedded system (i386 PC board). The structure of our disk is the following one : - A 2GB fat16 partition with DOS and syslinux - A 100GB Ext4 partition with Extlinux an several linux images to boot on ram - A swap partition The system boot on syslinux to choose among Dos and Linux boot using chain. When Linux is chosen, syslinux chains to

Hi Folks, OK - I'm not entirely new to Linux but I'm certainly not great on the boot process. What I'm trying to achieve is to boot from an external USB HDD (not flash drive) using EXTLINUX. I've run an installation against the disk using a VM. The disk was partitioned as follows: /dev/sda1 = /boot (bootable) /dev/sda2 =/swap /dev/sda3=/ (i.e. root) /dev/sda4=/dos sda1 and 3

Hi: I've been seeing intermittent build failures with the extlinux target, and I believe I've tracked it down to a VPATH issue. See this make -d log: Finished prerequisites of target file `extlinux'. Prerequisite `extlinux.o' is newer than target `extlinux'. Prerequisite `setadv.o' is newer than target `extlinux'. Prerequisite

hello, quick question about extlinux: I accidentally installed extlinux on the wrong partition (I run extlinux -i somewhere beofre mounting my usb key to somewhere). Now extlinux seems to be stuck in my main hd partition... how do I remove extlinux from the hard drive? I mean both the extlinux.sys file and the bits in the partition table... Could not find any info how to doit. Thanks. Paolo

Hi, I am having a problem booting from a disk installed with extlinux. The exact configuration that worked with version 3.36, when upgraded to 3.50, appears to still work on the same disk. But if I zap out the disk (i.e. start from scratch again) and install extlinux, the disk fails to boot. Extlinux stops at the boot: prompt after displaying "Could not find kernel image: linux". It

Due to delayed allocation feature on XFS filesystems, a write is not guaranteed to flushed out to the underlying file system after crash or something else - so we need to make sure that ldlinux.sys is installed correctly in the mounted filesystem.

Hi all: my filesystem is btrfs. /boot and / is on the same partition(/dev/sda2, format btrfs). i install syslinux as following: 1. rpm -ivh syslinux-4.00-1.i386.rpm syslinux-extlinux-4.00-1.i386.rpm syslinux-tftpboot-4.00-1.i386.rpm 2. extlinux-i /boot/extlinux. (the extlinux.sys can't be create on the directory). 3. i copy extlinux.conf to /boot/extlinux . (of course
