similar to: Fix: previous command at boot prompt not cleared

Hi, I picked up the following patches from Liu Aleaxander that he sent to the mailing list last year. They add some new features to the command line interface code and fix a couple of bugs. The following changes since commit 9ded45991b4fc83b40af963feb773ddca2589d74: ldlinux: Parse and store the "onerror" command line (2011-03-09 14:32:36 +0000) are available in the git repository

From: Sylvain Gault <sylvain.gault at gmail.com> The command-line parsing used to return a pointer to a local array. The code used to work by chance, but now, gcc 5 is able to detect it and return a NULL pointer instead. The buffer is now marked static. This shouldn't be a problem as only one command line can be read at a time. Signed-off-by: Sylvain Gault <sylvain.gault at

Hi, This is a another small set of fixes about CLI on elflink branch.

Hi, The following patches are just copying some functionality that exists in the asm cmdline code into the C version. There's still a few more things to do but we're getting there. The following changes since commit 8c576f1fe03e34879921311f46613a35c6530000: Merge remote-tracking branch 'mfleming/for-hpa/elflink/fix-compiler-warnings' into elflink (2011-03-16 12:53:58 -0700)

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

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

cmd_reverse_search has a bug that the variable cursor is updated even if a command wasn't found. If this happens, and the next key falls into the default case, memmove's size parameter would be a negative number. This bug can be reproduced by doing the following: On cmd_reverse_search (ctrl-r), type multiple keys at the same time. 'Enjoy' the triple fault and a screen of random

Hello, The description of SYSAPPEND for the DMI information states that the spaces are replaced by underscores, but this replacement does not occur in 6.03. There's small bug present in triplicata in com32/elflink/ldlinux/readconfig.c:copy_sysappend_string(), com32/menu/readconfig.c:copy_sysappend_string(), and core/sysappend.c:copy_and_mangle() prevent proper replacement of spaces by

This is a small set of patches for elflink branch based on feng's elflink branch. hpa, It seems that I can't log on terminus by ssh at home. So I can't push these patches on my git tree. Liu Aleaxander (4): elflink: Cleanup some warnings elflink: Fix the wrong malloc size in enter_cmdline elflink: Do clear screen even if we have no pDraw_Menu method elflink: Add Ctrl-p +

Previously, even non-length commands were added to history, but it shoudn't, e.g: just typing enter. For example, if you type: FOO -> (ENTER) -> (ENTER), then to get FOO from the history you would have to press the UP key twice. It also saves a bit of memory.

I applied the patch Gene wrote here: https://github.com/triton/nixpkgs/commit/06e146b2ce5eaaa54ebea061dd5797f89ae2c37c The tree after that commit is entirely based on gcc5.

Hello, The recent discussion about the size of the image produced by isohybrid not being a multiple of 2048 when people use -h 255 -s 63, made me wonder of whom should be worried by this more than 1024 cylinders warning. Are there any technicals details available on this "not all BIOSes will be able to boot this device"? After all, any hard drive now a days cannot be represented under
