There are no pre-compiled binaries (official or otherwise) on kernel.org. I assume what is meant is https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/boot/syslinux/ At least, that is where the "downloads" page of syslinux.org directs you. Under there are the various source tarballs (tar.gz format, tar.bz2 format). Also a directory called RPMS/. But that kernel.org RPMS/ directory is devoid of

Gene, Where did you find the precompiled binaries for syslinux 6.03-pre7? Actually, I'm interested in the pre-compiled binaries for syslinux 6.03-pre6. I went out to kernel.org, but the latest they have is 6.02. Which appears to have an endian problem in its TFTP client code (when syslinux.efi tries to connect to the TFTP server, attempts to connect to UDP port 17664 instead of 69).

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, i would like create a bootdisk , that can be boot from Old BIOS, EFI32 and EFI64. But for EFI Boot there is only one directory /EFI/BOOT/ In this directory I can copy BOOTia32.EFI and BOOTx64.EFI. But the *.c32 files for EFI32 & EFI64 , I can install to this directory at the same time. Is there a way to load the *.c32 from different directory ? Or is there a other solution ?

All, I was excited to hear about EFI boot support in pxelinux >= 6.00. So I tried it. Not working. I've tried 6.02 (from source), 6.02 (from RPM), early 6.03 (from RPM) and even pulled/compiled latest source from git. 6.0.3-pre7. No love. My boot client can boot/image fine in legacy PXE mode. My dhcpd.conf looks like this: # In initial DHCP DISCOVER packet, PXE client sets option

Hi all - I'm not sure if it's appropriate to ask this here, but I don't see this question explicitly answered anywhere. Is there an EFI version of "pxelinux.0" that will function basically the same way and read the same pxelinux.cfg/default menu files? I've got a really dodgy grubx64.efi EFI PXE menu up at work, but it can't load the 1.2 gigabyte LiveCD that we use

Dear Syslinux developers, I'd like to continue the discussion about this: http://www.syslinux.org/archives/2014-February/021659.html i.e. different directories for *.c32 files of BIOS, EFI32, and EFI64. I am wondering why we can not have *.c32 for the COMBOOT files of BIOS, *.e32 for the COMBOOT files of EFI32 *.e64 for the COMBOOT files of EFI64 As now the ldlinux file of syslinux 6.0x has,
