Hi, Yes, I'm back with this pet peeve of mine again. Most of the old cover letter at https://gist.github.com/wferi/6989458 still applies; I'd like to reiterate its last paragraph here, too: > And an official stat() implementation would be very useful.

(Tested using a Linux bzImage, with and without an initrd.) Per shuffle_and_boot documentation, %ecx must contain the descriptor list byte length, but it's set with such list end address instead.

The following is a first attempt to list the current change log for Syslinux 6.03. The final stable version, whenever it will be released, might include additional items. I would appreciate feedback regarding: _ Any item that should be added. _ Any item that should be edited in any way. _ Any item that should not be included. _ Any credit that should be added or corrected. _ Any wrong or

I have just pushed out Syslinux 3.80-pre7. I am slightly concerned about putting this into the release tree at this point: I was working with some of the shuffler code, and found that the memory map handling was actually severely buggy on some of my test cases. Resolving that problem took rewriting most of syslinux_add_memmap(). However, against better judgement :) I decided to check in the

3.80 is a bug fix and internal restructuring release. In particular, the entire shuffler subsystem has been rewritten largely from scratch, as has the Multiboot module. Changes in 3.80: * New shuffler mechanism and API. * Rewritten mboot.c32 module. * The syslinux_boot_linux() function has been simplified. * Don't hang trying to boot a "menu

Hi everyone, I have released Syslinux 6.03. It is by and large identical to 6.03-pre20. I would like to do a short cycle for 6.04, because 64-bit support for ext4 has come up as a very high priority. Therefore I do not want to stuff too many things into the 6.04 release but hold them for 6.05. Thanks to Ady for most of the changelog. Changes in 6.03: * chain: Fix chainloading on 6.02

Hello all, I am considering a major overhaul of the shuffle and boot functions in the Syslinux core. This means that the current API functions 0011h, 0012h, 001Ah and 001Bh will no longer be supported -- or, in fact, supportable. A new pair of functions will replace 001Ah and 001Bh; 0012h is redundant and 0011h will no longer be meaningful. The intent is to push the responsibility for

Again, special thanks to my employer, Intel, for letting me spend time working on this stuff ;) -hpa Syslinux 3.82 is a bug fix release for 3.81.

Hi everyone, I have pushed out Syslinux 3.81 to the usual places. Again, special thanks to my employer, Intel, for letting me spend time working on this stuff ;) -hpa Syslinux 3.81 is primarily a bug fix release. The main new features are halt-on-idle support and some features to isohybrid, including the ability to boot from an image written to a partition. Changes in 3.81: *
