similar to: Cluster Size discrepancy between FAT32 and NTFS

Hello Recently I've been happily experimenting with syslinux, replacing grub and my old bootmanager. All works beautifully, but I have one question - in case of .bss bootsectors - what exactly and under what circumstances is patched in ? With syslinux used as main bootmanager - bootsectors from xp64, xp32 and [pre-syslinux] msdos 7.1 (98se) work perfectly fine when chainloaded natively as

Hi, I am not an engineer or linux expert but I have been using syslinux to boot live disk filesets (extracted from iso's) residing on fat32 and NTFS volumes. In FAT32 there has been no problem going with larger cluster sizes up to the nominal maximum of 64K however, with NTFS it has not been possible to exceed the cluster size of 4096. With NTFS formatted using clusters of 8192 or larger,

Hey list, I have an older 2005 Uniwill 259ia3 with a Phoenix bios. Flash booting is limited to keys 512 MB or less! Here's my setup recipe: used the HP utility v. 2.0.6 giving me this geometry ---------------- fdisk -l ----------- Disk /dev/sdb: 493 MB, 493879296 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 60 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start

HPA, is it possible to add a parameter/argument to syslinux.com/syslinux.exe to specify a file? currently it's something like SYSLINUX A: I'd like the following also to be possible: SYSLINUX A: A:\SYSLINUX.BIN It still copies LDLINUX.BIN to A:, but writes the generated bootsector intended for drive A: to a 512byte user-specified file Perhaps to allow both at the same time even SYSLINUX

Hi, Currently, rsync --write-batch creates the batch fileset and also updates the destination. I suggest adding the ability to disable the latter. Motivation: I wish to sync two large but similar directories residing in different machines. There is a slow (dial-up) network connection between the machines, but I have physical access to both. Thus, I would like to create a batch fileset by

Hi, we are operating the IT of a small non-profit organization with a Samba server (2.2.5) and roughly 15 Win2k workstations. Everything works fine so far but one single issue: Printing messages from Outlook Express: only the header of the mail is printed, no single line of the body. All the domain users are standard-users (I'm not sure about the correct English wording, may be someone

Mr Anvin, is there a specific loading address used with the Syslinux bootsector (to load ldlinux.sys)? like msdos 0x70, freedos 0x60 we're trying to have a SYS program that can create bootsector for other OS's than FreeDOS only. not much luck though :( this way I'm trying to avoid the use of syslinux.exe/com (need the diskspace that it would save by not including this program) I

Bert, Hi. If you are still interested in your rsync+ project, changes for which have evidently been (and are, perhaps, still being?) submitted to the official, upstream rsync version, you may want to add the following feature, proffered below, in order to conduce a little greater batch mode usage flexibility primarily for those with above average security concerns. Currently (at least in the

Apparently there's a semi-new feature in SYSLINUX that will allow you to, from what I've heard, boot DOS. I've got a portable USB flash drive and I've managed to make it multi-boot with disk images, but that takes quite a bit of memory. I think bootsector booting is the best way to go, but I have no idea how to do it. Tell me if I've got this right: So, I want to get a flash

Hi! Facing a strange problem about not being able to access the floppy drive after booting from a rescue-floppy with 2.2.x kernel on an asus p4te mainboard, i searched the net and found a bug in the bootsector of the 2.2.x kernels. Before control is redirected to the kernel, the floppy drive is shut down in a way, that freezes the FD-Controller on recent mainboards (like the ASUS P4T-E). The

Hi All, I'm having a frustrating time exporting a GPFS Independent Writer AFM fileset through Samba.
