Alternating boot default entry every reboot
Not sure iso/syslinux directly has a way to do this, but I did find a
way to have a system act like you're saying.
I don't want it to automatically alternate, I want to have a command
to run that will change the default. (Remote system.)
=====
#!/bin/bash
sudo bash -c "sed -i '0,/^DEFAULT .*$/{s/^DEFAULT .*/DEFAULT
terra-snapper/}' /boot/syslinux/syslinux.cfg"

Thanks for the quick reply!
My understanding of that script above is that it will edit the cfg file

VirtualBox virtual machine hangs after ISOlinux upgrade 4.05->5.10 and up.
Hello,
I have specialized linux installation which uses ISOLinux bootloader. Recently isolinux version has changed from 4.05 to 5.10. From that time there is a problem with VirtualBox VM, It crashes (guru meditation) on attempt to boot from HDD or hangs on installation from CD.
Strange part is, the very same ISO on ESXi VM works like a charm. Also burned on CD and started on "real"

Creating LiveCD with EFI option?
I have been using syslinux-6.x along with isohybrid --mac and --efi option to create a usb hybrid iso with EFI support. The thing with EFI is that you'll need to use grub as your bootloader for EFI but isohybrid does setup the proper partition schema for EFI.
You'll need to use the following to generate an iso that works.
xorriso -as mkisofs -J -R -l -V some-vol-label \
-o ../image.iso

Changes to get CD to boot on EFI System.
I've been the maintainer of the G4L project since 2004, and have had great
success using syslinux, but yesterday I ran into a machine that would not
boot from the CD. The system system was a Lenovo L540 notebook, and it
seems to use EFI? Disabled the Secure EFI, but it still would not boot.
Comes up with the syslinux menu and seems to load the kernel, but then it
just stops. Never shows

Issue with timeout option?
I have a project g4l that uses syslinux and have been working on the next
version. I installed the 3.74 pre5, and it worked just fine. But I was doing a
test, and booted the systems, and usually pick the default kerenel or one of
the other kernels on the CD before it times out with 60 seconds. But this
time, I didn't do that. It loaded the default kernel with no problem, but then

Pre48 - syslxcom compile errors
I just downloaded the pre48 and ran make.
It ran fine for everything, but ended with a number of errors related to the
syslxcom program. Usually, I only see the messages about the windows
build since I am doing the make on a Fedora 10 system.
Is there something new that has been added that requires something that I
am missing? From looking at the program this isn't related to the isolinux

Looking for some guidance in creating a new kernel..
I've been making modifications to the G4l freshmeat/sourceforge
project. Unfortunately, the project person hasn't responded to email,
and doesn't seem to have checked in since 11/18.
The project is a bootable CD image, and it uses the kernel from
kernel.org, and the isolinux. The current setup includes two kernel
files called g4l and g4lold. Only those files and the isolinux file

I've been using the standard isolinux.cfg file for some time with

Linux and HDT looking systems?
I've got a user of my g4l project that is having a system that locks with my
kernels, but also with hdt? The default versions are using the 5.10 version of
syslinux, but build a special setup using 6.02 and it still locks with both the
kernels and the hdt? He was able to get gparted i486 live iso to boot on the
machine, so not clear what the issue might be.
The system is a Fujitsu T734

Syslinux 6.03 released
Hi everyone,
I have released Syslinux 6.03. It is by and large identical to 6.03-pre20.
I would like to do a short cycle for 6.04, because 64-bit support for
ext4 has come up as a very high priority. Therefore I do not want to
stuff too many things into the 6.04 release but hold them for 6.05.
Thanks to Ady for most of the changelog.
Changes in 6.03:

Question on Kernel boot options
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1
I have a project that uses syslinux to load the kernels from the CD to create
disk and/or partition images. The process works great, but as I have been
building newer kernel images with new disk and nic drivers, I have had users
run into problems.
Example: one users machine would fail at hotplug detection, creating a

.ERROR: idle with IF=0 with 3.81 syslinux update.
I just upgraded the syslinux on my g4l v0.31 alpha 05 for testing, and it
comes up to the syslinux (isolinux) from the boot cd fine. Then when I select
the kernel, the screen scrolls with the following lines for many iterations, and
then it seems to load the kernel and run OK.
