Is there a way to show some bits of information in the menu, like Syslinux version, MAC address and IP address? When the menu is loaded at startup, this information is quickly erased and is not easily readable. -- Alexandre Blanchette <blanalex at gmail.com>

Using that, load_file could be implemented in Lua as: that does work, yes. It just looked like a file object should have a some way to get the contents.

In PXELinux 4.06 (the vanilla version, not gpxelinux.0), I'm trying to use pxechn.c32 to call iPXE (undionly) with option 67 set to call an iPXE script. The relevant portion of my PXELinux config looks like this: LABEL MDT MENU LABEL ^B - MDT 2012 SP1 com32 pxechn.c32 APPEND undionly.kpxe -o 67.s=ipxe/mdt.ipxe However iPXE doesn't seem to get the option correctly, it goes into

Hmm, yes. The series is available at https://github.com/wferi/syslinux as well (lua52 branch, based on upstream

From: Paul Emmerich <p.emmerich at first-colo.net> Hi, the new API for initramfs and files in master lacked the ability to build initramfs objects from files loaded via HTTP/TFTP in Lua. The documentation indicated that it should be possible (and I believe I did that in an older version). I implemented a few new functions to handle files/initramfs objects better. Changes: * NEW:

I am a developer from the 'Frugalware Linux' distribution. I have been trying to use the syslinux lua module to support more dynamic menu generation at runtime for our distributed ISO images, as Grub2 is not very configurable for this. For example, I need raw access to the PCI bus information to configure the video output kernel boot parameters for specific hardware. Specifically,

Hello folks, There is a way to get the system serial number from SMBIOS and pass it as HTTP query string to get the kernel and initrd? Something like this: LABEL OS Download MENU LABEL Clonezilla MENU INDENT 1 KERNEL http://192.168.10.10/kernel.php?type=kernel ( http://myserver/kernel.php?SN=SMBIOS_SERIAL_NUMBER&type=kernel )&SN=SMBIOS_SERIAL_NUMBER APPEND

A small how-to for encapsulating option 210 inside option 43 on Windows DHCP servers would be welcome then :-) And as far as UEFI x86 system go, one would simply have to create another vendor class with the value PXEClient:Arch:00006 On Wed, Jan 15, 2014 at 12:05 AM, Gene Cumm <gene.cumm at gmail.com> wrote: > On Tue, Jan 14, 2014 at 8:52 PM, Alexandre Blanchette > <blanalex at

I've upgraded from syslinux-4.05 to syslinux-6.03-pre18 (pre11 was the same) and am having some issues getting lua.c32 to work. I'm using lpxelinux.0 if that's relevant. My boot file and the contents of default.lua are below. As you can see they are fantastically simple. Essentially I'm just using lua to put the results of ipappend in the right place on the command line. The

I'd like to be able to save a boolean value across reboots. I believe that being able to store to the auxiliary data vector would satisfy this need, but I'm using syslinux and that doesn't seem to be implemented. While I'm currently using a Lua script, I'm not tied to it, so if there's a way to read and write any persistent filesystem or disk, I'd be happy to switch.

I've found a way to support PXE booting both UEFI and BIOS architectures with Windows Server DHCP. This method uses a feature introduced in WinServer 2012: DHCP policies. First, in the the DHCP console, at the IPv4 root of the server, create a vendor class named PXEClient (UEFI x64) with the following value: PXEClient:Arch:00007 Then create your configuration for your BIOS clients in your
