Additional information: I was tried it with 2 virtualbox (version 4.2.14r86644).1rst: debian weezy with isc-dhcp-server, pxelinux5.01, pxelinux 6.00, tftp-hpa2nd: empty virtualbox booting from virtual network card.

Hi there, I am using the latest version of both syslinux ( acutally isolinux ) and memtest86. I get the error "Cannot load a ramdisk with an old kernel image." the memtest is just called memtest ( renamed from .bin as I read that in the archives that was bad ) My isolinux.cfg is just label memtest kernel memtest I searched google with not much avail. Is this a known issue to you?

Hello list, any try the new memtest86 v3.2 with isolinux 3.11 cd and pxeboot? How is the proper way to chainload memtest86 I was tried: label memtest kernel memtest.bin but, nothing happens just a weird hang (my older versions of memtest hangs too). Anyway chainloading in a floppy image with memdisk on CD or pxeboot was fine but if I use memory to emulate a floppy I was not using this memory

Hi! At first thanks for your great work! I started to make multiboot CDs 1,5 years ago, with Bart Lagerweij 's utils. I have a problem with the memtest86 floppy image, made by the authors in the .zip file, downloadable from it's homepage, when I use diskemu. Some days ago I found on Bart's page a new method to select boot images on CD with syslinux/isolinux/memdisk. I thought this is

Deal developers, I'd like to follow the thread http://www.zytor.com/pipermail/syslinux/2013-April/019761.html but change the subject to 'pxelinux 5.10 and memtest86+ 4.20' and provide more test cases. The pxelinux before version 5, e.g. version 4.06, worked very well with memtest86+ 4.20, all my PXE client machines, including VMWare workstation 9, VirtualBox 4.2, and all the real

Hello, This is my first post to this list. After searching through the archives and google searches I could not find a solution for my memtest problem. In previous versions of pxelinux/gpxelinux (4.04 and 4.06) I could successfully start the memtest utility. But using pxelinux/gpxelinux versions 5.01 and 5.02 the memtest utility does not boot and I get an error message: boot: Loading

I'm building a custom bootdisk that I would like to boot linux or boot memtest86 (www.memtest86.com). And I'm running into some difficulties with recent versions of syslinux. All I'm doing is making a new label in syslinux.cfg called memtest and giving it kernel memtest.bin. This has worked on and off for several recent versions of memtest. It worked in 1.67, broke in 1.70(loads

Dear Colleagues, memtest86 does not work any more after upgrading PXELINUX to 6.01. When trying to boot, I get the following message: PXELINUX 6.01 2013-07-04 Copyright (C) 1994-2013 H.

It depends on the exact memory map of the system. Gene Cumm <gene.cumm at gmail.com> wrote: >On Fri, Jun 28, 2013 at 7:31 PM, H.

Hi! I try to start memtest86 with pxelinux. I used to do this with pxelinux 1.66 for some time and it worked very well with just -------- SNIP -------------- label something kernel memtest86.bin -------- SNAP -------------- Now I upgraded to pxelinux 2.06 and there, it fails. I can choose the entry, then the file is downloaded (at least one "." shows up) and started but does

Im trying to boot memtest86 via pxelinux, memdisk, I found this advice on http://forum.x86-secret.com/viewtopic.php?t=2906 folks are making the image match a floppy size by one of the following: dd if=memtest86+-1.xx.bin of=memtest.img bs=360k count=1 conv=sync or dd bs=360k count=1 conv=sync if=memtest86+-1.xx.bin|gzip > memtest.gz I did the former, it did suppress the warning/errors I saw
