New module which check if the PLoP Boot Loader already has booted a CDROM or USB drive by checking for the presence of the PLoP INT13h hook. The following assembly code (NASM) can detect the PLoP INT13h hook: mov eax,'PoLP' ; Reverse of 'PLoP' mov ebp,'DKHC' ; Reverse of 'CHKD' int 13h cmp eax,' sey' ; Reverse of 'yes ' jz

Hi, I'm trying to setup a flash drive with Syslinux 4.0.2, ifplop.c32, and plpbt.bin (5.0.10) as shown in the thread here: http://forum.plop.at/index.php/topic,165.0.html Unfortunately, the system reboots as soon as I load plpbt.bin from Syslinux. I don't think it's a problem with plpbt.bin because it works if I boot Grub4DOS and load it. : ( It will also work if I boot

System: Dell OptiPlex GX620 (Both BIOS A10 and A11 affected) Medium: Physical CD-RW Observed: ISOLINUX 5.11 0x51D1AE48 ETCD_ is the only line displayed on-screen. A flashing cursor trails at the end of the line. Escape key does not return boot: prompt. Line1 of syslinux.cfg: DEFAULT vesamenu.c32 Note: Reverting to syslinux-4.06 allows for successful booting on the same system. Patrick On Tue,

This same system boots with syslinux-4.06. Let me know if there is any further info you need. We tried syslinux-5.11-pre5 as well. Patrick Verner partedmagic.com

We have tried compiling the binaries our self and using the pre-compiled in the syslinux tar ball as well. It just locks up with the text we provided. The problem is booting from CD, booting from USB works. I suspect the problem is in isolinux.bin. The CD only fails on this one machine. It works on everything else we tried. 4.06 worked without any issue on this same machine. Parted Magic has been

I wrote a COM32 module which detects if the PLoP bootmanager was used to boot a CDROM drive or USB drive, by checking for the presence of the PLoP INT13h hook. The PLoP INT13h hook check works like this (NASM syntax): mov eax,'PoLP' ; Reverse of 'PLoP' mov ebp,'DKHC' ; Reverse of 'CHKD' int 13h cmp eax,' sey' ; Reverse of 'yes '

Hi, I bought a USB hard drive, got Mandriva installed on it, and made it bootable with extlinux. Works great on machines that can boot from USB. I also created a boot cd using the instructions in the wiki. This is working too. The only problem with the boot cd is that I had to copy the kernel, initrd, etc. to the cd. This means that whenever I install a new kernel I'll have to create and

Hi Shao Miller, I found another ISO that doesn't work with MEMDISK-ISO. It is the ISO of the PloP bootmanager. It is a ISO which uses floppy emulation. When I boot it with MEMDISK-ISO (run from Syslinux), my PC instantly reboots. When I extract the floppy image from the ISO and boot this file with MEMDISK, it works fine. Grub4dos iso emulation works fine for this iso. When using Grub4dos

>>Could you do screen captures of the output of meminfo.c32 when booting ISOLINUX-4.06 as a CD and SYSLINUX-4.06 as a USB?

Same CD. Any Linux distribution without the 5.X series boots on this machine. We can use 4.06 and it boots just fine. It's not the computer's hardware. Like I said, we can take the CD out of the GX620 and place it in the 9010 and it boots. Put 4.06 on the CD, and they both boot.

I'm not exactly sure what you need. Is this it? ISOLINUX 4.06 0x513e88f5 isolinux: Starting up, DL = 82 isolinux: Loaded spec packet OK, drive = 82 isolinux: Main image LBA = 0000011D isolinux: Main image read, jumping to main code... I created an iso with isolinux-debug.bin as the boot loader and booted it on that machine. If this is not what you are looking for, what are correct steps?
