I am trying to setup a portrait mode screen. I can see that in 3.85, there is an enhancement which allows arbitrary resolutions (http://git.kernel.org/?p=boot/syslinux/syslinux.git;a=commitdiff;h=5d4ade0221c2387345d0a82422866bb8b937cb09). Can I use this new feature to achieve setting the portrait mode. What is the syntax in the config file to set it? Also, is there any other vesa driver

Hi, i'm possibly not the best source of general SYSLINUX knowledge, as my interest in it is only with my xorriso hat on. (As you can see in the SYSLINUX wiki, xorriso can do the isohybridization without the need for the isohybrid program.)

Hi Folks, When I boot ISOLinux, the locally attached disk is visible but the PATA 40 Gig in a USB attached enclosure is not. The locally attached disk has no bearing on what I am doing and to avoid confusion will not be mentioned again. Everything is happening on the 40 Gig. Let me explain. The goal is: Copy an installation iso to the disk, boot the disk and install it on that disk. I have

Hi Folks, I'm interested in "headless" installation. If I use GRUB, then I provide arguments to the kernel of things like "headless vnc vncpassword=whoopie ip=dhcp" GRUB passes this on to ISOLinux, which manages the CD and subsequently the installation. Shouldn't I be able to do exactly the same thing with EXTLinux? I ask, because, as you might suspect, I

Hi there!! I has been modified the syslinux.cfg file according to the rules to add some boot parameters but since this modification, every time I that I highlight the modified entry in the boot menu and hit the TAB button on my keyboard, the entry's boot parameters is displayed twice and when I try to "backspace" them out, the line again get displayed twice and so on. So my

Hello, First of all, thanks very much for this piece of software, it's working like a charm. I'm using it to boot a Linux distro I'm working on. What I want to deal with is the display of accented characters in ISOLINUX. First, I set EXTLINUX up to boot an ext2-formatted USB stick. No problem so far. I wrote a config file ordering to load a font (lat-9w) to display french

Hi all, I have pushed out a SYSLINUX 3.30-pre1. The main difference versus earlier versions is that this version contains a *preview* of a VESA graphical menu system (vesamenu.c32); it's used the same way as menu.c32, with the addition of a few more commands (which can also be used in menu.c32 in this new version): MENU BACKGROUND file.png ... loads a background image in PNG format.

This is an issue I've researched quite a bit on bug lists, and looked in the Syslinux Wiki for a way to do this, but haven't yet found a solution. 1) I have an existing Fedora 13 LiveCD which I burned to a CD and tested on a system without issue. 2) I then took that same ISO and dropped it in my pxelinux.cfg/default for being able to boot over the network. I made sure to extract the

Greetings Syslinux forum, I used this link; https://askubuntu.com/questions/1090891/grub-menu-colors and I followed it's tutorial for implementing the grub theme and was able to delete the menu border by creating a customized grub theme for UEFI boot (grub.cfg)! Do you know if the "syslinux.cfg"(legacy boot grub) can have it's border removed, like do you know if
