Hi, I encounter a problem with Syslinux 5.00 I cannot really describe. So I created two small videos: Booting with Syslinux 5.00 (1.3 MB): <https://www.dropbox.com/s/b6g8cdf2t9v48c6/boot-syslinux5-fail.mp4> How I fixed the problem by downgrading to Syslinux 4.06 and how booting should look like (6.5 MB): <https://www.dropbox.com/s/lt7cpgfm0qvqtba/boot-syslinux5-how-i-fixed-it.mp4>

Alpine linux is a distribution that uses musl libc instead glibc. Here are my steps to reproduce: On Alpine linux, download LLVM, Clang, LLD 6.0.0 from releases.llvm.org, and build them from source. $ clang -c hello_world.c $ ld.lld --gc-sections -m elf_x86_64 -o hello_world /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-alpine-linux-musl/6.4.0/../../../../lib/Scrt1.o

Dear all, I'm working on a shell script which is producing a bootable image file. It contains a populated MBR and a single file system (ext4) which again contains a debootstrabed debian stable distribution. Unfortunately, I'm experiencing problems with the bootability of the produced image. When selecting the installed system at the boot prompt, Syslinux responds with something like

Can you add `--reproduce=repro` to lld command line? That generates repro.tar in your current directory which contains all input files. And then please compress and upload it somewhere so that we can take a look.

We been trying to boot the image in vbox using efi emulation but it complains about kernel not supporting handover. Anyways, I will take your advice and get back to you tomorrow. I think we might be getting close to a successful boot on Mac OSX hardware and any other UEFI capable hardware. Thanks for your help and tomorrow I should come with more data to debug. P.S the latest fedora ISO seems

Hello, I am trying to configure pine.conf for all users and running into an issue. In this setup, Mailbox format is Maildir and Maildir location is /Mail/Username/{new,cur,..etc} First thing required in alpine was patch for maildir and this has already been done. After that I have tried setting up folder-collection Mail #md ../../Mail/username and also tried using #mc (not sure which one is

Hi Timo (and all!), Venaktesh is a friend of mine working on a patch to the venerable Alpine mail reader so it can read Maildir format mailboxes on disk. Venkatesh wanted to know if he could use some code from Dovecot's lib-storage (safely opening/reading Maildirs, including accounting for NFS and ESTALE) and the UID->message mapping code. This way, Dovecot and Alpine would agree on
