Hi Bootmeisters, I am using gpxelinux.0 + sanboot.c32 to boot a diskless machine into Linux. I would like to use device-mapper-multipath to provide fault tolerant access to its root disk. Although I am able to do this by hardcoding the additional paths in the initrd, it would be better if the bootloader could pass the information in the iBFT (iSCSI Boot Firmware Table). However, at the

Hi, I have a working PXE environment that chainloads gPXE and loads pxelinux.0 afterwards. As I'm also interested in doing san boot (in my case aoe) I tried loading the new gpxelinux.0 file instead of my gPXE --> pxelinux.0 setup (works) and booting from my aoe target by adding this to the default config file: LABEL doaoe MENU LABEL Continue AoE kernel sanboot.c32 append

Hello All. Yesterday I?m trying another ways but without luck. Issue still exist ? Please help. Is it possible to rewrite DHCP setting for sanboot.c32 after gpxelinux.0 load? Will be nice to have this possibility because: 1. DHCP can be ?black box?. 2. DHCP admin not available. 3. PXE server rewrite dhcp setting. I cannot boot from cdrom after pxe(gpxelinux.0) ? please help. LABEL Windows 7

Hi, I've been trying a couple of day now, but I can't seem to figure it out. On www.etherboot.org, I found the example of configuring gPXE so that it mounts an iSCSI lun and then boot from CDROM so you are able to install on the LUN. But if I use gpxelinux.0 (latest release 3.73), with sanboot.c32 like this: label sanboot2008srv menu label ^[iscsi] Windows server 2008 kernel

Hello! I got oops after about 3 hours of uptime. Load was about 1,5. This is output of ksymoops after forced reboot if it helps someone. :-) ksymoops 2.4.0 on i686 2.4.14-pre8.

Dear Developer: i am working a project including iSCSI booting. i have a iscsi server with windows xp system image and fedora system image, and a booting server providing dhcp and tftp services.I made some menus using pxelinux and things are working fine with linux, but failed with windows . i use the following strings in my dhcpd.conf: ....... filename = "pxelinux.0";

Hi All, A colleague of mine is using syslinux-3.20-pre8, syslinux.com, under DOS to install syslinux loader. It gives "sector read error". He re-compiled syslinux.com under a linux box, and used it successfully to install the loader from DOS. He is installing it on a hard drive (C:) He booted from a floppy and ran: "syslinux.com C:" at A:\ prompt He tried with

Hi I have been using pygrub for most of the needs. Was trying out some stuff on SLES 10 SP1. It seems that it does not have pygrub!! On the other hand,they have domUloader.py which requires bootargs="--entry=hda:/boot/vmlinuz...., path to ramdisk. It is quite strange to be asking for the path of the kernel and the ramdisk to be supplied in the conf file!!. Am I missing something

I have released SYSLINUX 3.11-pre8; this is a release candidate. The differences versus -pre6 is that I have reverted the PXELINUX stack changes I did in SYSLINUX 3.10 since there are confirmed reports that they break at least one platform. As before, I hope to release 3.11 on Tuesday unless I get objections. ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/boot/syslinux/Testing/ -hpa

hallo everybody, i googled a lot of time, looking for PV-drivers for Windows- domUs. I found a few things about that, but nothing about download an installation. Do anybody know, where I can get it and how to install? My configuration: Dom0: CentOS 5.1 DomUs: Windows XP and 2003 Server Thanks for any help, Guenter _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list

hi Peter, everyone, I recently installed extlinux on my CF drive. after a few botches, it works, with menu.c32 too. Heres a few notes/observations: - menuing seems pretty sensitive to presence of tabs in extlinux.conf, unlike with pxelinux.cfg/default, Is this an oversight, or something Im misremembering ? - extlinux doesnt have the timeout after menu-choice. if I dont choose, it times out and

Tested floppy boot on two machines (one PII 350, one 486DX4) Floppy boot with syslinux is very very slow, more than 18 mn to boot a linux kernel from floppy on the 2 machines. Tested with 3 different disquettes that were know to work, boot is reached after this very long time. Noise from floppy head make think floppy wait approximatly one minute between each read. No problem with pxe boot with

Another prerelease for the 5.00 (elflink) branch should be making its way to the mirrors now. The shortlog for -pre7 to -pre8 is listed below. Just like the 4.06 branch I was really hoping to drop a final release this week. Once 4.06 is out I'll merge that into 5.00. If you can, please test it out and let know any of any bugs you find. Because so much of the core infrastructure is rewritten

Hello, I''m thinking about a setup that looks like this: - 2 headnodes with FC connectivity (OpenSolaris) - 2 backend FC srtorages (Disk Shelves with RAID Controllers presenting a huge 15 TB RAID5) - 2 datacenters (distance 1 km with dark fibre) - one headnode and one storage in each data center (Sorry for this ascii art :) ( Data Center 1) <--1km--> (Data

First let me say I'm really excited about the possibility of dynamic menu creation over http using php. When this is stable it will make maintinging some of our pxelinux infrastructure much easier. Id like to thank all involved; I'm really looking forward to the gpxe intigration. After hpa's announment for 3.70pre7 I begain testing. I dropped the new gpxelinux.0 and new c32 modules

I have a working pxelinux environment. I point the "boot server" (windows dhcp) to my tftp server and "Bootfile name" to pxelinux. How would I invoke the chain loader over iscsi? I was reading the following page and wondering if I could use gpxelinux to boot this? http://etherboot.org/wiki/soc/2009/dverkamp/notes/windows_xp_iscsi I saw examples of san boot here

Hi, I am using rsync 3.0.5 on novell open enterprise sp1 server (sles10 sp2, newest kernel, x86_64).

I have produced a first cut of integrating gPXE with PXELINUX. This builds, in addition to the usual pxelinux.0, an image called gpxelinux.0 which includes the gPXE network stack. The result is that one can now download images via (almost) any network protocol supported by gPXE, including http. This lets one do fun things like using a CGI or PHP script for the configuration file. SAN

The paravirtualized guests are offered wallclock time referenced to UTC only, while fully virtualized guests are given the option via the config file (localtime parameter) of starting with UTC time or local time. What would it take to optionally provide localtime to the paravirtualized guests as well? For a guest that launches assuming localtime as its time basis, then later deriving UTC from it
