Hello dear list, Using VMware I built a test setup of a server with dhcp, tftp and a http-server and several pxe-clients with EFI mode turned on. This setup worked, albeit with the exponential-like decay of IO rate I described earlier. The work-around of using HTTP works beautifully though. So it was time for the next step. Migrate this setup to our automated testing environment that runs

I'd like to know a little about the internals of RSYNC. I am a little confused as to why RSYNC is using both the simple 32 bit algorithm and the MD4 checksum function on the same files. From my testing this causes a vast overhead that is clearly not represented by RCP (fairly obvious!). Removing checksumming from a secure whole-file LAN transfer brings RSYNC in line with the general

Hello. We are using pxelinux for years to boot Linux via PXE since years. Since EFI is spreading, I changed configuration to be able to boot EFI systems. The "Client": - HP Proliant DL380Gen9 System FW: 1.21 11/03/2014, latest available - NIC used for booting: HP Embedded LOM 331i (Broadcom BCM 5719/ tg3), FW: 5719-v1.38 The Server: - ISC-DHCP with tfpd-hpa running on Debian 6.x -

Hello all, I am seeing the same symptoms described here by Holger Baust on 5-Feb-2015. The only differences in our setups that I can see are that Mr. Baust claimed to be using HP DL380p Gen9, whereas I'm on an Oracle X5-2, and Mr. Baust claimed to be using vlan tagging, while I am not.

I google that pxelinux is a NBP, and i have there questions after glancing the source code, exactly pxelinux.asm. 1 should NBP specify target processor mode to 16? but also found 'BITS 32'in the pxelinux.asm. 2 should pxelinux.asm assemble into a raw binary file? but found '$(NASM) -f elf' in MAKEFILE under ./core/ dir. 3 can be used to boot window OS? thanks for

In another mail I discussed my adventures on netbooting syslinux 6.03 and newer from iPXE, either from an emulated rom on qemu/kvm/ovmf or by chainloading via ipxe.efi onto a real HP Proliant DL360 gen9 piece of iron. You might have asked yourself, why chainload? Why not load it directly? Believe me, i tried. First I had to 'fix' my dhcpd.conf because HP probably read the docs on

I'm interested in redoing doc/syslinux.txt into 2 AsciiDoc documents, splitting configuration from command. First, however, I'm requesting comments on my recent documentation of several modules I have written. My goal is to be clear, concise, and complete. Acknowledgements and constructive comments are welcome. If it would help to also post converted copies of these documents (HTML,
