similar to: [PATCH 0/2] Cross-compilation patches

Hi together, this is the second version of my cross-compilation patch serie. I'm sending it in the hope to get an honest review, and possibly see the patches integrated upstream. Those patches allow to build syslinux using a toolchain different from the host one by explicitely using the host toolchain for the utilities that are required at build-time / on the build machine. I am using the

I have put a compile hack in for older distros and pushed it out as syslinux-3.62-pre16; for those who have reported compilation problem on older distros I would greatly appreciate if you could confirm if it works now (it worked for me on a CentOS 3.9 VM.) -hpa

Sensei H. Peter Anvin, I have successfully modified/enhanced memdisk so that one can chainload a local operating system after running diskless FreeDOS. I would like your advice regarding the appropriate interface for invoking this functionality. In addition, I would like to know what steps to take so that you feel comfortable considering including this in the standard syslinux distribution.

Just a slight poke regarding the MEMDISK and MDISKCHK.COM possibilities available here[1]. Review by non-hpas is welcome, too. Thanks! - Shao [1] http://git.zytor.com/?p=users/sha0/syslinux.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/ mdiskchk_enh2

Folks: I've used etherboot to create a zrom that successfully brings a image of a bootable floppy into high memory. What I'd like to do is glue memdisk in so that it can hook int13 and serve the transferred image for booting when etherboot hands control back to the BIOS. The trick, and this is where I'd appreciate "gotchas", pointers or "this is an approach I

Hi everyone, I have pushed out Syslinux 3.81 to the usual places. Again, special thanks to my employer, Intel, for letting me spend time working on this stuff ;) -hpa Syslinux 3.81 is primarily a bug fix release. The main new features are halt-on-idle support and some features to isohybrid, including the ability to boot from an image written to a partition. Changes in 3.81: *

Hi all, I have just released syslinux-3.70-pre25. Unless someone has something big and scary that either I have managed to miss or was just stumbled over, I'm going to release 3.70 final some time between tomorrow and Monday. Thus, *please holler now* if there are any stop-ship problems still known... -hpa

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

3.80 is a bug fix and internal restructuring release. In particular, the entire shuffler subsystem has been rewritten largely from scratch, as has the Multiboot module. Changes in 3.80: * New shuffler mechanism and API. * Rewritten mboot.c32 module. * The syslinux_boot_linux() function has been simplified. * Don't hang trying to boot a "menu

The utilities are meant to run on the host machine, hence must be built using the host toolchain.

Hi. We've been using PXELINUX for years, to kick off OS installations (floppy images) and booting assorted tools. The addition of ISO support in memdisk opened up some new alternatives that we also use, e.g. booting WinPE ISO images over PXE. Today I downloaded a BIOS for a HP EliteBook 8440p and discovered that the BIOS file is 3 MB. I could probably squeeze it onto a 2.88 MB floppy image

I have just released SYSLINUX 3.00-pre9. The only change versus 3.00-pre8 is that the MEMDISK query API now reports the boot loader ID byte, per Bernd's suggestion. This is a release candidate, and I plan to release it as 3.00 *tomorrow*, unless I hear back anything bad. -hpa

Can't hold it off any longer... here it is :) Changes in 2.00: * ALL: Add support for "COM32" (32-bit COMBOOT) images. * ALL: Add an API for COMBOOT/COM32 images. See comboot.doc for details. There is a C development environment for COM32 being created; it should be ready at some point in the future. * Fix mbr.asm so that it

I am having difficulty trying to figure out how to get a computer to boot from it's local disk automatically after the pxe menu times out. I installed syslinux-3.11-4 with yum onto CentOS 5.5 It boots to the local disk if I select Local from the menu and press enter but it never times out and boots localy. The AUTOBOOT message doesn't appear either. Which instructions in the PXELINUX
