Hi all, I'm building extlinux on a rather limited linux system (LFS), bios version (no efi). Unfortunately, extlinux.txt does not contain any information related to build procedures and dependencies. python /sources/syslinux-6.03pre11/com32/cmenu/menugen.py --input=/sources/syslinux-6.03pre11/com32/cmenu/test2.menu --output=test2.c

Folks, I've just spun a 4.07 prerelease. People were asking for a release that contained the commits that have been sitting in the master branch, and I've heard that distros are packaging the master branch just to get at them. --- Matt Fleming (4): extlinux: Avoid dereferencing a garbage pointer Merge branch 'searchdir_leak-406' of

Folks, Syslinux 4.07 should be making its way to kernel.org now. There is only a small number of changes when compared with 4.06, mainly bug fixes. It turns out people were packaging up the git 'master' branch just to get at those commits, so here's an official release to eliminate that extra work. At this point, it's looking pretty certain that this will be the last release in

Hi I have made myself a derivated menusystem based on the complex.c menu that cames with syslinux. And now I need to read a file, search for my pxebooted netcards mac address, and write some changes back to the same file. All the writing and reading I hopes will be of no trouble, but how can i find my own mac address? (and IP adress would be nice). I have searched the list, but I really cannot

Hello everyone, I am trying to PXE boot my Acer Aspire G3-773G laptop. It uses UEFI, so I load 64bit syslinux.efi (v6.03) and it automatically loads ldlinux.e64. All is fine. But when I want to use cmenu.c32 (with UI cmenu.c32 in the config file), the loader downloads: * cmenu.c32 * libmenu.c32 * libcom32.c32 * libutil.c32 Then syslinux reports: "unable to load cmenu.c32:

Hello, I poked a little bit to extract the list of modules dependencies in Syslinux v6 (see below). I have attached a bash script that generate a nice table from the tarball. The output can either be an ASCII table, or wiki markup, typically for the page Library_modules[1]. I am not in the wiki Editor group, so I can't put that in the wiki. anyway, here's an updated dependency tree for

Hello All, This is my first time requesting help, so please bear with me. I don't upgrade Syslinux very often (only when the need arises), until now I have been using version 4.05. However, I have recently acquired several UEFI servers that are in need of being able to do OS installations via pxelinux. I have upgraded to Syslinux version 6.03, however I am not able to compile my custom

Hi, This branch contains the new ext4's inline data support which has been added recently to kernel 3.8. In addition to inline data support, there are other patches that remove trainling whitespaces and extra new lines in ext2fs code and the other adds an assert() macro to Syslinux core. I think it's worth mentioning that these changes were made against master branch.

From: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming at linux.intel.com> Don't link against libmenu.a, it no longer exists as it was removed in commit 74518b8b691c ("elflink: Make ELF the default object format"). This fixes the following build error, make[2]: *** No rule to make target `../cmenu/libmenu/libmenu.a', needed by `hdt.c32'. Stop. Signed-off-by: Matt Fleming

I'm seeing some sporadic build failures with 'make -j4'. The failures are: make[4]: *** No rule to make target 'hello.c32', needed by 'all'. Stop. I've only seen the failures with com32/samples/hello.c32 and com32/rosh/rosh.c32. I'm not a make expert, but I think it's due to missing dependencies. This patch seems to fix my failures, but I'm

Hi Peter, Please pull the following changes. Paulo, I had to revert your "pxe: resolve names via DNS from protected-mode code" change because dns_resolv() is only implemented for PXELINUX and causes undefined symbol references for ISOLINUX, etc. Feel free to make the change again on top of the revert. The following changes since commit e7bd19def830e8341b1a100956345f1028740b9e:

It has been observed that binaries contents are depending on the order of linked objects. This order is caused by GNU make's wildcard function and the position of sources on filesystem. This change tries to prevent this kind of randomness. Also consider building using -j1 flag to make it even more reproductible. Change-Id: Ie8eee7f336e6f1fa2863c4150d967afd15519f1d Bug:

From: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming at linux.intel.com> Move the MCONFIG files into a mk/ directory and give them more descriptive names. This is purely a cosmetic change to make the 'include' directives a bit more coherent by making it obvious exactly which MCONFIG file we're including. For example, in com32/lua/src/Makefile we exchange the line, include ../../MCONFIG for the

Hello, Here are some humble suggestions for 'doc/menu.txt' and 'doc/syslinux.txt'. They might be relevant for other documentation sources too. Unfortunately, I don't know how to prepare adequate patches. For 'menu.txt': _ Line 8: "located in the menu/ subdirectly." Suggestion: "located in the 'com32/cmenu' subdirectory." _ Line 10:

hi all, I think Ive successfully merged the lua branch with master, it needed a minor fix to a Makefile, as follows.
