lo lo, trying to compile current syslinux git: [kernel] Linux gzp1 2.6.31-gzp1 #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Sep 21 07:34:39 CEST 2009 i686 GNU/Linux [glibc] GNU C Library stable release version 2.10.1, by Roland McGrath et al.

hi, - big and ugly mail. If you don't like them, delete it now :-) - I have collected and classified some information of: http://home.earthlink.net/~rwhron/kernel/bigbox.html And I observed that ext3 performance is worse than previous kernels(2.4.19...). -ac and -aa are here only as reference. Complete information is in the upper URL. dbench: Performance is worse. dbench (Numbers are in

Okay, the serial port feature in 3.11-pre9 was of course completely broken (I seem to have bad luck with -pre9's :)... a 3.11-pre10 is now available, and it does seem to have a more reliable handling of arrow keys ... *but not perfect*. There simply is no way to reliably detect both [Esc] and arrow keys on existing serial consoles. -hpa

I have put a compile hack in for older distros and pushed it out as syslinux-3.62-pre16; for those who have reported compilation problem on older distros I would greatly appreciate if you could confirm if it works now (it worked for me on a CentOS 3.9 VM.) -hpa

Im trying to use newer simple-menu features, and have found that the following config-file (closely based on wiki pxelinux example) - fails for 3.62-pre11, - works for 3.62-pre10 where 'working' is successive reloads such that re-edits of file are seen on next reload and broken is issuing this error: Initial menu has no LABEL entries! boot: #>

I have released 3.08-pre10, which includes a version of 'raw' support which should work when the CPU is in big real mode (called 'bigraw', appropriately enough.) Note that it will ALWAYS put DS and ES in big mode; there isn't any really sane way to test if they should be or not. -hpa

I have just pushed out Syslinux 3.81-pre10. This fixes some pretty serious bugs, including the fact that, apparently, isohybrid didn't work at all in CBIOS mode. Unfortunately it means that the isohybrid handover protocol has changed, and so a new isolinux.bin isn't compatible with an old isohybrid or vice versa (as a result, the magic number has changed.) -hpa

I have put out a 2.07-pre10; this version recognizes vendor-encapsulated (a.k.a. vendor-option-space) PXELINUX options as well as unencapsulated (a.k.a. site-option-space) PXELINUX options. Please try it out... I'd like to release 2.07 no later than Monday. ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/boot/syslinux/Testing/ -hpa

Ok, despite what I said yesterday I decided to release a 2.08-pre10. The only difference over 2.08-pre9 is that I have added a small program in the "samples" directory called chain.c32. This allows chainbooting local floppies and hard disks: chain fd0 ; Chainboot the first floppy drive chain hd0 ; Chainboot the first hard drive chain hd1 3 ; Chainboot partition 3 on the second

hi, i've tested with 2 version of awdflash and uniflash: here the results: it only worked with freedos, not with win98 dos; with win98 the images were not bootable; but that does not matter; freedos is ok. awdflash 8.27.45: flash ok awdflash 8.27.41 (uses protected mode): flash ok uniflash 1.40: when starting flashing the program freeze. awdflash 8.27.45 never worked before so i think this

I have pushed out SYSLINUX 3.10-pre10 with the fix for Arwin's bug. Still no idea about the bug reported by Curtis Doty. Pending issues before 3.10: - Need for forward-port EBIOS changes from SYSLINUX to EXTLINUX; - Verify EXTLINUX functionality on Supermicro systems; - Try to make some head or tail out of menu.c32 hang, if at all possible; - NOESCAPE. - Curtis' bug (garbage at end of

Hi all, I've finally gotten around to actually implement the long-discussed TEXT HELP feature. Try it out, please; it's in 3.40-pre10. -hpa

I am hoping for some advice regarding another index problem. The code below is intended to assign a value of 'V' if values on certain variables are >= 1, assign a value of 'N' if values on certain variables are >= 1 on other variables and assign a 'O' if values on any variable which have a value <= 0. The outcome of this code is to assign a single

I've been working with Matt Burgess here on this problem, and have found the following: syslinux 3.08-pre10 ? broken >>> config.inc:max_cmd_len=255 syslinux 3.08-pre11 ? works >>> config.inc:max_cmd_len=1023 syslinux 3.08 ? works >>> config.inc:max_cmd_len=1023 syslinux 3.09-pre1 ? works >>> config.inc:max_cmd_len=1023 syslinux 3.09-pre2 ? broken

I just tested 6.02-pre10 version. ? On physsical machine it is booting ok now,?but chain.c32 result is the same errors :? ERR: Primary partition (in MBR) with invalid offset and/or length. ? ERR: Cant't find myself on the drive I booted from Adding 'relax' option to chain.c32 invocation resolves the problem. ? In qemu the boot and chaining works ok (without 'relax' option).

Hi, syslinux-6.02-pre10 works! I'll get my menu. -- Regards, Igor

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]
