Ady, Thanks for taking the time to respond to my lengthy post.

I have done another install to the usb stick. # syslinux --directory EFI/BOOT --install /dev/sdc1 ...this creates files ldlinux.c32 and ldlinux.sys in /EFI/BOOT I then mounted the 1st partition of the usb stick and copied syslinux.efi and ldlinux.e64 from /usr/share/syslinux/efi64 to /EFI/BOOT in the usb stick. I renamed syslinux.efi to BOOTX64.EFI I copied my files boot.msg, help.msg,

Hi guys, Would someone mind advising me about this, a very simple menu: ui menu.c32 menu title Boot Manager default quirky timeout 100 label quirky menu label Easy 0.2.6 kernel vmlinuz append root=/dev/sda3 rootwait rw label Help menu help help.msg File 'help.msg' is a text file, if I select it, the previous menu remains in the background, between the characters. If I hit Esc to go

I've have my scripts to a better state, including installing/using qemu to uefi and legacy boot the usb stick for testing. It mostly works for me, but the "wget a tarball of binaries" step isn't going to sit well with

Nice to see that at least one person read

works with legacy, hangs with efi. where works is: No DEFAULT or UI configuration directive found! but enter and ^v make things happen hangs is: nothing happens, no response from keyboard, have to reboot. note: config prompt.cfg prompt.cfg does not exist, but I would expect similar behaviour between efi and legacy. test is: starting with blank image, mkfs, mount it... + cp

Under EFI/BOOT are the following files: BOOTIA32.EFI (from efi32/efi/syslinux.efi) BOOTX64.EFI (from efi64/efi/syslinux.efi) ldlinux.sys (copied from root of partition) lua.c32 mboot.c32 menu.c32 syslinux.cfg vesamenu.c32 KS.CFG (vmware specific) BOOT.CFG (vmware specific) autoselect.lua These files are also all under the root of the partition (except BOOTIA32.EFI and BOOTX64.EFI) and work fine

Goal: To have one USB drive capable of booting UEFI IA32 and UEFI X64 (with an optional Syslinux menu containing multiple entries). Problem (solved) #1: The default directory location for both syslinux.efi is the same. Solution #1: Rename each syslinux.efi to bootx64.efi and to bootia32.efi. Problem (solved) #2: Each syslinux.efi needs at least its respective ldlinux module. Solution #2:

What I would like to have is the same thing for network boot. So having one topdirectory on the TFTP server that can serve several "architectures". > Problem (solved) #1: The default directory location for
