I'm bringing back an old thread, but I'm still having problem with this: http://etherboot.org/pipermail/gpxe/2010-March/000571.html The summary of that thread is that with gpxelinux.0, on some computers the command LOCALBOOT 0 will hang the computer. Around the same time as the original thread, there was a patch to add localboot -1. Also in the original thread, it was proposed to use

I'm still trying fruitlessly to get some sort of local disk boot from syslinux EFI to work... using the 6.03 modules. Tried various combinations of configurations on Gene's test binaries. For reference this is on different models of HP Proliant Gen-9 systems with UEFI. Firmware as up to date as it comes. The UEFI boot order has the hard drives and OS ESPs before the PXE interfaces

I just tried to boot extlinux off of /dev/sdb and use the option localboot 0x80. I was hoping to see syslinux for the second time as the system loaded the master boot rec from /dev/sda. Why is this option only in pxelinux and isolinux? Nicholas A. Schembri State College PA USA

I'm having problems with PXELINUX passing through to a "localboot" on a HP Proliant DL385. I'm working with 3.73. If I configure PXELINUX to directly "localboot", everything works. If I configure PXELINUX to use menu.c32 or anything like that, a subsequent localboot fails. I see the expected "PXE ROM exiting" message but the next device doesn't

A bug in command localboot was introduced in version 6.03. This bug was created because of inserting memsets in core/localboot.c. The third memset before /* Read one sector */ clears the field ireg.edx, which was assigned earlier and is required for subsequent __intcall0x13. So localboot type works as localboot 0. I think, this third memset in core/localboot.c is useless and excessive.

Hi, I'm trying to get the LOCALBOOT option to work with syslinux. I have a bootable USB that boots using syslinux and when ever I select the localboot label it says that it could not find the kernel image. This is my syslinux set up LABEL start localboot 0x80 and when I type "start" at the boot prompt this is what I get back "Could not find kernel image: start" Is

I have been using PXELINUX, with "LOCALBOOT 0" when wanting to boot from disk, for many years. Now on new Dell Optiplex 990 machines, PXE boot with "LOCALBOOT 0" hangs after message Booting from local disk... without the expected "Exiting PXE" message. I tried "LOCALBOOT -1" and some other values also, none seemed to work. I tested SYSLINUX 4.04.

What about "chain.c32 hd1" or "chain.c32 hd1 swap"? Jonas Keidel <jonas at jonas-keidel.de> wrote: >2013/8/5 Jonas Keidel <jonas at jonas-keidel.de> > >> >> >> 2013/8/5 H. Peter Anvin <hpa at zytor.com> >> >>> On 08/05/2013 07:04 AM, Jonas Keidel wrote: >>> >>> > >>> > So i've also

pxelinux, when given a localboot=... option, will try to boot next bios device itself. The problem is it takes next BIOS device by BIOS order of enumeration. That has no connection with the boot order defined in BIOS. Since a user cannot control BIOS enumeration but can control the boot order, there is no way one can force a desired next device for local boot with pxelinux. In general, you

Ive got a soekris 4801 on which Ive used pxelinux... its bios is set to go to pxeboot 1st, then localboot. Ive got: label bootlocal MENU label ^9 Boot Local localboot 0 # timeout 80 # TOTALTIMEOUT 9000 but using hangs: Booting from local disk...

Hi! A friend of mine has tried a PXE floppy (build from the new etherboot 5.3.12) to load PXELINUX.0; a menu voice of the pxelinux.cfg use the LOCALBOOT statement. Selecting this statement, the PC retry to boot from the floppy... is this normal? The user expected that LOCALBOOT would have tried the NEXT boot device (ie CDROM or HD), not the FIRST boot device (the floppy)... (note: this has

As subject says: With Intel PXE stack version 4.x (stack identifies itself in BIOS as IBA 4.0.x or 4.1.x), pxelinux' localboot option hangs instead of going to BIOS. This does not happen with older PXE stack. I have a feeling that the this broke somewhere in version 2.x - I *believe* 1.75 PXELINUX works fine - but haven't had a chance to try again. -alex
