Peter, Paulo reported some problems with his config files under ISOLINUX and PXELINUX - basically TIMEOUT and TOTALTIMEOUT were broken. The patches I've pushed to the elflink branch fix this and also fix parsing of the ALLOWOPTIONS config directive.

Modern distributions are moving toward a common boot scheme called "The Boot Loader Specification". This patch enables syslinux's (vesa)menu.c32 modules to parse the drop-in files that are defined by this new specification.

Hello While testing PXE booting, I decided to change IPAPPEND to the new SYSAPPEND and does not work: nothing is appended to command line.

Hi, These patches contain support for some features that are already in Syslinux 4 but weren't working properly on the elflink branch. It's another step closer to feature parity with Syslinux 4. Having to jump through the comboot API for localboot support is less than ideal and I'll eventually fix that, probably when we move a big chunk of code from asm to C. Also, there's a

From: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming at linux.intel.com> This is a series of patches that, * shrink the core by moving things into an ldlinux ELF module * begin wiring up some of the C versions of various functions The core now only contains essential code and loads the ldlinux module to do everything else, like providing a command line interface and loading kernels. The config file parsing

Would someone please be so kind to explain / describe the PXERETRY directive? TIA, Ady.
