Peter, Paulo reported some problems with his config files under ISOLINUX and PXELINUX - basically TIMEOUT and TOTALTIMEOUT were broken. The patches I've pushed to the elflink branch fix this and also fix parsing of the ALLOWOPTIONS config directive. The following changes since commit d5e02fb16a11bfdbce1e90a39e6cb5f2ad925389: get_key: Valid key values are positive (2012-04-17 11:25:53

Hi, I was hoping you could shed some light in usage of the directive MENU HIDDENKEY in syslinux (extlinux 4.04) The docs say: MENU HIDDENKEY key[,key...] command... So, in my conf I have: MENU HIDDENKEY Esc openelec Where openelec is the label of the boot option I want to run only if Esc is pressed. But pressing Esc on boot has no effect. Default is run. So, do I misunderstand the

I assumed the keys not working would be specific to my straight-booting wish, but playing around with the suggestions that you provided, I see it's indeed more

I just started to play with syslinux 3.11 and have some problems with the configuration. I want to implement following: wait 5 seconds till the users chooses the right label. if nothing is done for 5 seconds it should boot from next boot device specified by the BIOS. I configured syslinux like that: default menu.c32 prompt 0 timeout 50 ONTIMEOUT localboot totaltimeout 200 display boot.msg MENU

Hello hpa, We are developing a Xen-based virtualization service, and we are trying to reduce excessive CPU utilization at isolinux boot prompts. When users boot up a virtual machine on an isolinux boot CD, the CPU starts spinning at 100%. These machines frequently get left in this state for days or weeks, degrading the service for everyone else. You replied to the work-around discussed in

From: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming at linux.intel.com> These patches are based on the elflink branch. This set of patches is my attempt at moving the command-line interface functionality out of the core and into an ELF module to reduce the size of the core. The most interesting patch is [PATCH 4/4] which moves the cli code out of core/elflink and into com32/elflink/modules. [PATCH 4/4] is

Hi, OK. I build syslinux-6.02-pre6 from https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/boot/syslinux/Testing/6.02/syslinux-6.02-pre6.tar.gz on a Debian jessie/sid system (with gnu-efi_3.0u+debian-2 from experimental): root at jessie: ~# cd /tmp root at jessie:/tmp# wget https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/boot/syslinux/Testing/6.02/syslinux-6.02-pre6.tar.gz root at jessie:/tmp# tar xfz

Hi. I have looked at PXElinux<http://www.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php?title=PXELINUX> to understand all this, but I'm very sorry I don't. I have managed to setup to boot from PXELinux, but I'm not an expert on how to setup a menu file for making a windows unattended installation. Could someone help me with that? Is there some kind of a forum for this or is it just by email?

Hi all, I can't suppress TAB menu prompt and I wonder if this feature is working or not. I'm using extlinux and here is a cut from extlinux.conf: UI menu.c32 prompt 0 MENU TITLE MYPC MENU AUTOBOOT Automatic boot in # second{,s}... MENU NOTABMSG timeout 100 TOTALTIMEOUT 1800 label main MENU DEFAULT MENU LABEL Linux Kernel 3.x ... I'm using latest code from the git tagged as

Hello, First, could you make a tar.gz instead of a tar.xz (at least on debian)? I compiled the syslinux-4.05+dfsg I would like to ask you if I shall copy the menu.elf + menu.c32 to the concerned directory? The menu.elf is needed or it shall be renamed as menu.c32 ? Shall ldlinux.sys be too coming from same file? my simple example of menu: default menu.c32 prompt 0 MENU TITLE Sample Menu

Ive got a soekris 4801 on which Ive used pxelinux... its bios is set to go to pxeboot 1st, then localboot. Ive got: label bootlocal MENU label ^9 Boot Local localboot 0 # timeout 80 # TOTALTIMEOUT 9000 but using hangs: Booting from local disk... PXE-M0F: Exiting MacPhyter PXE ROM. then nothing. the same compact flash image works fine when boot order is 80 1st, or

From: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming at linux.intel.com> This is a series of patches that, * shrink the core by moving things into an ldlinux ELF module * begin wiring up some of the C versions of various functions The core now only contains essential code and loads the ldlinux module to do everything else, like providing a command line interface and loading kernels.

host static anyterm content locally, url parameterize anyterm rows/cols/general param update spec/makefile Ideally I wanted and tried hard to put all this into a seperate ovirt-server--anyterm subpackage, but we cannot 'reopen' the ovirt server virtual host defined in ovirt-server.conf to add the neccessary rewrite rules. it would be nice to figure out a way to do this ---

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

Hi, I'm missing something in my isolinux.cfg configuration but I'm not quite sure what it is. menu.c32 displays properly over video console, but on the serial connection, the first letter of the labels are duplicated, and the margin is pushed off towards the right: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/59666947/isolinux.jpg my config is: --- cut --- 1. serial 0 115200 2. console 0 3. 4.
