So last week I was wondering if XFS was still working -- even with its last on-disk structure changes -- and it _suprisingly_ worked as expected. Right, now I can finally get rid of GRUB and use Syslinux to boot my Linux on EFI from a rootfs with xfs. Shit, I have two partitions (the first one being the required ESP) so there is no way to access the other partitions since because Syslinux does not

From: Raphael S. Carvalho <raphael.scarv at gmail.com> This patch finishes the MultiFS support. init_multifs gets called in the main (startup) function of ldlinux.c32, so MultiFS will be initialized automatically. init_multifs calls enable_multifs (lives in the core) to hook get_fs_info. Subsequent accesses will callback the get_fs_info living in ldlinux.c32. Signed-off-by: Raphael S.

Raphael, Except for the : instead of the , this looks like the grub hard disk nomenclature that's been around for a thousand years. Certainly since early GRUB1. Example: (hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz Why did you chose : instead of grub's , ? I'm guessing (like grub) that disks & partitions are 0-based? (Were the original grub authors European?)

Before proceeding with the MultiFS patchset, let's discuss the MultiFS syntax. It's currently as follows: (hd[disk number]:[partition number])/path/to/file Any objections? Regards, Raphael S. Carvalho

It would be good to clean it up so out can be used for both. Just teach it that ) ends the parse.

From: Raphael S. Carvalho <raphael.scarv at gmail.com> MULTIFS SYNTAX: (hd[disk number]:[partition number])/path/to/file The meaning of this_fs was changed to improve the flexibility of the support. Now, this_fs means the file system being currently used. root_fs was created to save the context of the main file system (where ldlinux.sys lives in). get_fs_info is a function pointer that

Hi Gene It took me some time to check all the things you've asked. Hope you still remember the case... 1) Compiling SYSLINUX with -j1 didn't help. The first error message I get is about missing header file. I'll try to play a little bit with it to make it compile. 2) The 3-character mode that the version/copyright banner displays is EDD. What determines the it? BIOS? What affect
