This is true however the impression I got from HPA is that the resulting binary is not under the same restrictions. He made note of its rarity in 46a81bae and the resulting need to include a binary with last edits on 2010-06-21 in 7556a891. -- -Gene

This adds checks for Watcom C DOS cross-compiler in a manner analogous to mingw compiler for Windows. The compiler is not commonly present in Linux distributions due to a non-free license.

In Syslinux 6.03-pre6: _ The txt/html/*.html files are currently created 3 times, one for each firmware. I think they should be created only once (under the main txt/html/ directory), just as the rest of the documentation is. In that case, the <respective_firmware>/txt/html/ subdirectories should not even be created. _ The bios/dosutil/ directory contains copybs.com and eltorito.sys,

From: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming at linux.intel.com> This series includes a patch (PATCH 1/6) that I sent previously but I thought it was worth sending it again since the rest of the series depends on it, and it also gives a bit of context. These cleanups make it simpler to do the big switchover to ELF modules on the elflink branch because the libraries in $LIBS are now contained in one

Thus the rub: The exe seems to have disappeared from winbin as well. It's there, but downloads as a zero-byte file. > Date: Sun, 6 Jul 2014 22:40:21 +0200 > From: herbszt at gmx.de > To: sha0.miller at gmail.com > CC: syslinux at zytor.com; jml9904 at hotmail.com > Subject: Re: [syslinux] mdiskchk and WinPE > > Shao Miller wrote: > > On 7/6/2014 01:55, Ady wrote:

This is an attempt to avoid potential confusion. Here are some example sizes for the two Syslinux versions mentioned in the e-mail subject. Your build results might be different. 4.06: 1 55 Sep 22 22:23 modules/int18.com 1 108 Nov 1 18:07 version.mk 1 138 Nov 1 18:07 version.gen 1 138 Nov 1 18:07 version.h 1 239 Sep 22 22:23 modules/poweroff.com 1 408 Sep 22 22:25

Gert, sample binaries are here[2]. --- mdiskchk: Add --no-sequential mode It might be useful to suppress MDISKCHK.COM's classic behaviour of probing all BIOS drive numbers in search of MEMDISKs. Some BIOSes might not enjoy being probed. --- memdisk: Correct El Torito termination response Two

Greetings, all... Hoping someone can point me in the right direction. I've set up a Linux PXE host with a menu choice to install Windows. This option boots a WinPE image, which then uses \\net use... to mount the appropriate ISO image. Works fine. However, I would like to pass the iso name and directory into WinPE from the menu via append= arguments. Thus, I can set up a separate menu option
