Peter, Paulo reported some problems with his config files under ISOLINUX and PXELINUX - basically TIMEOUT and TOTALTIMEOUT were broken. The patches I've pushed to the elflink branch fix this and also fix parsing of the ALLOWOPTIONS config directive. The following changes since commit d5e02fb16a11bfdbce1e90a39e6cb5f2ad925389: get_key: Valid key values are positive (2012-04-17 11:25:53

From: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming at linux.intel.com> This is a series of patches that, * shrink the core by moving things into an ldlinux ELF module * begin wiring up some of the C versions of various functions The core now only contains essential code and loads the ldlinux module to do everything else, like providing a command line interface and loading kernels. The config file parsing

Maybe I missed something here. What I want to happen is PXE boot on a timeout will boot to the hard drive. But, what happens is my comboot menu, which is default, loads right away and the ontimeout only happens when I escape out of the menu. My pxelinux.cfg/default: default menu timeout 100 ontimeout localboot # The Main Menu label menu kernel mainmenu.com append keeppxe #

Hi, OK.

Hello, Long story short, example config: ### cut UI vesamenu.c32 MENU TITLE Multiboot USB MENU BACKGROUND #00000000 MENU COLOR sel 7;37;40 #e0ffffff #20ffffff all MENU COLOR unsel 37;44 #50ffffff #a0000000 std MENU COLOR tabmsg 31;40 #30ffffff #00000000 std MENU BEGIN MENU TITLE System Rescue CD 2.4.1 INCLUDE sysrcd-2.4.1.conf MENU END MENU BEGIN MENU TITLE

From: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming at intel.com> Since we can't use __intcall() for EFI, and since we can now have the ELF module code resolve all our symbols at runtime, we should delete as many references to __intcall() as possible and just access the symbols directly. The most interesting patch is the support for weak symbols. We need to be able to reference derivative-specific

Hi. I'm trying to get around the problem of an overloaded tftp server causing a pxelinux client hanging at the boot: prompt, waiting for input (no one will input anything to it). The server is OK enough to give the pxebootloader but not the config file, as in this thread: http://syslinux.zytor.com/archives/2004-June/003662.html So, in that case, I guess setting TIMEOUT to some

From: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming at intel.com> Here are the patches that I've got queued up based on the very helpful feedback I received from people testing Syslinux 5.00-pre9. Unless anyone has any concerns these will make it into Syslinux 5.00-pre10. Matt Fleming (9): pxe: Don't call open_config() from the pxe core ldlinux: Print a warning if no config file is found

Hello I want to fallback to a second boot entry, if the kernel is missing for the first entry. So I through I could use ONERROR, but syslinux just continue to try starting the first entry.

> After I removed the UI I am able to see the boot error message. If the error is related to Syslinux, could you please post it here? Is it still happening? BTW, since the Syslinux package in ArchLinux is currently built with less debugging options than the official upstream binaries, perhaps you might want to consider testing the latter, so to see whether the behavior and the (error)

Hi, if you can provide a prepared src tarball like you do for releases, I can test. But I still cannot build from git source (as you may remember). -- Regards, Igor
