similar to: replacing ldlinux.sys

When i build syslinux.4.02 i get an error like this. I haven't been able to figure out what could be wrong. My gcc version is 4.1.2 and nasm is 2.10.07. Binutils is 2.17.50 I am compiling on xenserver 6.0 Thanks Alakesh 31186 bytes (31 kB) copied, 0.000315067 seconds, 99.0 MB/s nasm -f elf -Ox -g -F dwarf -DDATE_STR="'0x5110300a'" \

Hi guys, I'm have a pure 64-bit system (Intel based). Due to that I can't use 32-bit ELF extlinux binary provided in the syslinux-6.03 package. Unfortunately building extlinux installer failed...

From: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming at intel.com> Here are the patches that I've got queued up based on the very helpful feedback I received from people testing Syslinux 5.00-pre9. Unless anyone has any concerns these will make it into Syslinux 5.00-pre10. Matt Fleming (9): pxe: Don't call open_config() from the pxe core ldlinux: Print a warning if no config file is found

Thanks for the response, Gene. Much appreciated. I didn't get all of it; mind if I follow on below? ldlinux.sys is ldlinux.bin without the VBR (Volume Boot Record) code. > Makes sense. > > 1.

Gene, thanks for doing "Reply-All". I only get digest, so this keeps me in the loop. Appreciated. > which appears to be included in diskstart.inc.

A proposal for changing the LDLINUX.SYS layout and flow: The current situation ("old style"): ldlinux.bin's physical layout: - VBR - 512 bytes of padding (never lands in memory) - ldlinux.sys, which is: - Sect1 code (494 bytes, leaving enough room for at least one extent, as planned) - Extent pointer patch space (1920 bytes) - The rest of the code

Calc the size of ldlinux.sys from ldlinux.bin, and check if it exceeds the limit. ldlinux.sys must fit between the bootsector and two copies of ADV whose size may vary. Thus, the size of ldlinux.sys can be at most: 65536 - 2 * ADV_SIZE - 512 (limit). Certain file systems

Calc the size of ldlinux.sys from ldlinux.bin, and check if it exceeds the limit. ldlinux.sys must fit between the bootsector and two copies of ADV whose size may vary. Thus, the size of ldlinux.sys (limit) can be at most: 65536 - 2 * ADV_SIZE - 512. Certain file systems (such as BTRFS and UFS2) will rely on ldlinux.sys being installed on the 0-64k range, thus it can't exceed the limit,

Hello, I am working on a remote upgrade that will utilize a squashfs to boot off the hard drive. I have everything worked out and functioning, except I see installing extlinux as an unecesarry step. The only thing I use the command for is to install the ldlinux.sys file to the /boot/extlinux/ folder. The rest of it is just a file copy. What manual step can I take to avoid the installation of

My question is the following: I need to "syslinux" a harddisk(partition-type is FAT16, size is about 100mb). I created a Dos-Bootdisk with WindowsXP and removed everything except command.com, io.sys and msdos.sys. Then I copied syslinux.com (and even ldlinux.sys) to the disk but nothing seems to help, I always get the "SYSLINUX: Cannot read ldlinux.sys"-error. Should I use
