similar to: [syslinux:firmware] ldlinux: use platform filename extension

Hi all, wasnt sure whether this was the best place to put this information; but something seems to have gone 'backwards' in the later pre-releases of 6.03 regarding network booting. below are results of me testing - i did each a few times to make sure they are valid results. hope it helps identify something that's gone awry ? so far, 6.03 pre11 and pre13 (excluding efi32) seem most

Dear Syslinux developers, I'd like to continue the discussion about this: http://www.syslinux.org/archives/2014-February/021659.html i.e. different directories for *.c32 files of BIOS, EFI32, and EFI64. I am wondering why we can not have *.c32 for the COMBOOT files of BIOS, *.e32 for the COMBOOT files of EFI32 *.e64 for the COMBOOT files of EFI64 As now the ldlinux file of syslinux 6.0x has,

In my previous email, when I mentioned "all" the c32 files, I actually meant all the c32 files that pertain to the adequate firmware's

Under EFI/BOOT are the following files: BOOTIA32.EFI (from efi32/efi/syslinux.efi) BOOTX64.EFI (from efi64/efi/syslinux.efi) ldlinux.sys (copied from root of partition) lua.c32 mboot.c32 menu.c32 syslinux.cfg vesamenu.c32 KS.CFG (vmware specific) BOOT.CFG (vmware specific) autoselect.lua These files are also all under the root of the partition (except BOOTIA32.EFI and BOOTX64.EFI) and work fine

There are no pre-compiled binaries (official or otherwise) on kernel.org. I assume what is meant is https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/boot/syslinux/ At least, that is where the "downloads" page of syslinux.org directs you. Under there are the various source tarballs (tar.gz format, tar.bz2 format). Also a directory called RPMS/. But that kernel.org RPMS/ directory is devoid of

I'd say this is an excellent place to start. I'm getting some similar results here with the precompiled

Hello, i would like create a bootdisk , that can be boot from Old BIOS, EFI32 and EFI64. But for EFI Boot there is only one directory /EFI/BOOT/ In this directory I can copy BOOTia32.EFI and BOOTx64.EFI. But the *.c32 files for EFI32 & EFI64 , I can install to this directory at the same time. Is there a way to load the *.c32 from different directory ? Or is there a other solution ?
