similar to: chain loading Syslinux 3.86 from 6.04

Thanks. That gets me further. Syslinux 4.07 loads from Syslinux 6.04 now. For some reason though it reread D:\syslinux.cfg instead of D:\ESXi\syslinux.cfg . I don't see the directive that tells Syslinux(4) to look in the sub directory for syslinux.cfg instead of the root. The only thing (right now) I can see that is different, is my D:\syslinux.cfg is one file while yours loads other files

Thanks! The only way I could see to write to a file is using the win32 version and specifying a file after the drive letter. syslinux.exe D: syslinux.bin This throws the same message on to boot and just says Boot error. Is that what you meant to write it to a file? I tried in Linux: syslinux --install syslinux.bin and that did not work(throws an error that syslinux.bin does not exist). I

Syslinux 3.86 is out; it is a bug fix release. Syslinux 4.00, starting with Syslinux 4.00-pre38, is now officially in beta test. Special thanks to Intel Corporation, my current employer, for their support for my Syslinux work. Changes in 3.86: * chain.c32: fix chainloading the MBR of a hard disk (broken in 3.85). * mboot.c32: report the boot loader name in the information structure. *

hpa etal, Im trying to get PIRT running on an SBC which has no CD-ROM drive. (an 8 MB ISO which demo's RTAI - RealTime Application Interface, on linux patched with Adeos) (BTW, PIRT uses isolinux) anyway, Im trying to use pxelinux to chainload / memdisk / mboot it, Im having no success. Ive also tried booting memtest86, which I can boot on my laptop using grub, ie title memtest

What are you doing with Lua? Offering multiple boot selections including ESXI's

Hi all, I'm attempting to PXE boot ESXi, which uses the syslinux mboot.c32 module. The mboot.c32 included with ESXi seems to be an older version that runs into an "out of memory loading.." problem halfway through, even though the box has 8GB memory. This may be related to NUMA, since it works fine on an older box but not the newer blade. I saw that some non-contiguous memory issues

Hi, I have had a VMware ESXi network boot setup for quite some time now. After upgrading from 4.06 to 5.01 (or 5.10-pre3) the network boot fails with the following error: --- snip --- Failed to load COM32 file esxi/5.1.0/mboot.c32 boot: --- snip --- This error is seen for the ESXi bootup only. The default mboot.c32 from syslinux itself doesn't work and this setup has been working with

Under EFI/BOOT are the following files: BOOTIA32.EFI (from efi32/efi/syslinux.efi) BOOTX64.EFI (from efi64/efi/syslinux.efi) ldlinux.sys (copied from root of partition) lua.c32 mboot.c32 menu.c32 syslinux.cfg vesamenu.c32 KS.CFG (vmware specific) BOOT.CFG (vmware specific) autoselect.lua These files are also all under the root of the partition (except BOOTIA32.EFI and BOOTX64.EFI) and work fine

I recognize hardware with Lua and execute the ESXi installer with configuration files for that hardware. This works fine with normal Syslinux boot, but I want to get it working for UEFI boot as well. I found?efi64/efi/syslinux.efi and efi32/efi/syslinux.efi in the installer source, copied them and named them respectively?BOOTX64.EFI and?BOOTIA32.EFI in USBDISK:\EFI\BOOT. These were also the

Hi All, Now that we have multiboot capable pxelinux, thanks to mboot.c32, I decided to try and remove pxegrub from my x86 jumpstart infrastructure since, in theory, pxelinux can now do it all. The problem I'm having is I'm not very sure I'm following Tim's documentation correctly... I'm not 100% what comes after the --- and whether the Sun kernel needs it's arguments
