The config.c32 module (and the CONFIG directive) is not behaving as expected when using syslinux.exe 5.00pre11 as installer. To replicate: 1_ The content of the device: /dira /cat.c32 /config.c32 /ldlinux.c32 /ldlinux.sys /libcom32.c32 /pwd.c32 /syslinux.cfg /dira/dira.cfg 2_ Content of /syslinux.cfg: DEFAULT pwd1 PROMPT 0 LABEL config1 COM32 config.c32 /dira/dira.cfg APPEND /dira/ LABEL

I have some questions about "ALLOWOPTIONS 0". [quote] ALLOWOPTIONS flag_val If flag_val is 0, the user is not allowed to specify any arguments on the kernel command line. The only options recognized are those specified in an APPEND) statement. The default is 1. [/quote] My understanding of the behavior of "ALLOWOPTIONS 0" is that unless I type-in a command that is exactly

Initial comments about 5.00-pre11. 1_ Using ctrl+v at the boot prompt: SYSLINUX 5.00 5.00-pre11CHS Copyright ... Initial copyright notice when booting to Syslinux prompt: SYSLINUX 5.00 CHS 5.00-pre11 Copyright ... Request: make the ctrl+v result to be shown as the initial copyright notice (including order and space characters). 2_ Hello.c32 is still behaving differently than in 4.06.

Hi there, i just build a new ipxelinux.0 with an EMBED=../../syslinux-5/core/pxelinux.0. i'm trying to load up my vesamenu.c32 menu from http:. and offcorse i want this as optimal as possible, with the least needed GET requests. OLD situation with v4: PXE ROM -> ipxelinux.0 (tftp) -> menu.php (http) -> vesamenu.c32 (http) NEW situation with v5: PXE ROM -> ipxelinux.0 (tftp)

Hi Matt, First comments about 5.00-pre10. 1_ When using "ctrl+v" in the boot prompt, there is no space character between the version and the boot mode. Additionally, the main version number is shown twice. For example, "SYSLINUX 5.00 5.00-PRE10CHS" should be: "SYSLINUX 5.00-PRE10 CHS" 2_ Boot to menu.c32, press [ESC] to go to the boot prompt. Pressing [ESC]

I have a question about the PATH directive. In fact, the question is not about how it is currently working, but about its intention or goal, or how it was supposed to work (or how it was thought about for the 5.00 release). Previous discussions about the PATH directive in the Syslinux Mailing List, and its documentation (e.g. "PATH rules") left on me the impression that it was

Hello Syslinux Team, I have some suggestions / requests regarding global APPEND commands. These would make the behavior more consistent and more useful for practical cases. 1_ Add some functionality equivalent to "APPEND -" to the command prompt. 2_ Activate the functionality of ONERROR from [vesa]menu.c32 too. Currently, ONERROR only works from the command prompt. 3_ Add a new

I've been trying to get syslinux.efi working in my environment again... Found what look like a bunch of little bugs that are very frustrating... First, the documentation on the Wiki says that as of 5.11, the list separator is space, not colon. But I can find no evidence that 5.11 was ever officially released or that a commit to git was made to make this change. 6.00 and following still use

Hello, I am trying to setup a PXE server for two Debian releases (stretch and buster) using their respective network boot images (netboot.tar.gz), which I extracted into subdirectories of the TFTP server's root directory: ??? ??? debian ??? ??? ??? buster ??? ??? ??? ??? debian-installer ??? ??? ??? ??? ldlinux.c32 -> debian-installer/i386/boot-screens/ldlinux.c32 ??? ??? ??? ???

Folks, I've just pushed out another prerelease for the 5.00 branch. The idea behind this -pre was to merge in the final 4.06 release. I'm aiming for a final 5.00 release next week, but as we saw with the 4.06 branch, anything can happen and these deadlines can get pushed backwards. Please, test if you can. One thing that is going to happen next week is a Syslinux-6.00-pre1, which will
