Both the build directories under /usr/src/syslinux-<VERSION>, and under /tftpboot/pxelinux/<VERSION>/efi64/<my data> and I flip the "filename" and

Gene, Ady thanks for your suggestions. >> What if you dropped the timeout to 0.8-2.0 seconds or even 0.2 seconds?

Dear gentlemen, I think I'd better start another thread for this... thanks to Ady Ady and Gregory Lee Bartholomew for their responses to my early question. Just for the record, my fresh experience with PXElinux 6.x follows: syslinux.efi version 6.03 does boot to the extent that it shows a prompt, but if I provide it with a CFG file containing several labels, no matter what label I type

Hi, I'm using PXELinux (on Windows NT5.x, with Windows NT5.x tftpd and the PXE server included in the "Windows XP Embedded Remote Boot Server"). This works well here since more than 10 years now. Recently I created a subdirectory "syslinux" in my "tftpboot" ... and PXELINUX failed with the message "unable to locate configuration file". Renaming that

Hi all, wasnt sure whether this was the best place to put this information; but something seems to have gone 'backwards' in the later pre-releases of 6.03 regarding network booting. below are results of me testing - i did each a few times to make sure they are valid results. hope it helps identify something that's gone awry ? so far, 6.03 pre11 and pre13 (excluding efi32) seem most

Hello All, this is my first post so I'll try to be as verbose as possible. We have a PXE deployment server serving mostly fujitsu RX300 rack mount servers with Intel 82575EB Gigabit Ethernet Controllers onboard. I recently upgraded from version 4.07 to version 6.02 and, without making any edits to my default menu, immediately noticed a regression. I use vesamenu.c32 to present a menu to the

Just tested with the latest VirtualBox and that works OK, so it's definitely something specific to ESXi 6.0.0 (it worked previously under 5.x ESXi versions).
