Hello While testing PXE booting, I decided to change IPAPPEND to the new SYSAPPEND and does not work: nothing is appended to command line. I tested using menu.c32 and vesamenu.c32, same issue. --------------------------------------------------------------------- SERIAL 0 38400 UI boot/syslinux/vesamenu.c32 LABEL arch64_nbd MENU LABEL Boot Arch Linux (x86_64) (NBD) LINUX boot/x86_64/vmlinuz

To remind you once again. ISOLINUX >= 6.00 built with GCC >= 5.0.0 causes a broken boot. This relates specifically to the use of the vesamenu.c32, menu.c32 works without problemos. This "code" is already in 6.03, therefore this is not a fix for it! Revert "SYSAPPEND: Fix space stripping" This reverts commit 3106dcd http://repo.or.cz/w/syslinux.git/commit/3106dcd Fixes

OK, 6.01 is now out. The main intention of this release was to fix the terrible bug in Syslinux 6.00 which made it impossible to boot kernels from BIOS. This resulted in a way shorter than usual release cycle, and it does mean that there are some bugs that have been reported that haven't yet been fixed. Shortlog appended below. Thanks to everyone who helped test things out. --- Gene Cumm

Hello, The description of SYSAPPEND for the DMI information states that the spaces are replaced by underscores, but this replacement does not occur in 6.03. There's small bug present in triplicata in com32/elflink/ldlinux/readconfig.c:copy_sysappend_string(), com32/menu/readconfig.c:copy_sysappend_string(), and core/sysappend.c:copy_and_mangle() prevent proper replacement of spaces by

To my experience, one signdness change causes a little tree of consequential signedness changes or questionable cast operations. How about the following instead ? if ((c >= 0 && c <= ' ') || c == '\x7f')

Filesystem UUID shows the partition we boot kernel from. The kernel parameter has format like FSUUID=DA1A-0B2E. The SYSAPPEND bit is 0x40000. Now the FAT only supports FSUUID.
