Thanks for the hints - I have NOT CONFIG_EFI enabled - do I need this actually? I do not know which variables I need to boot... The kernel APPEND parameters are sufficient for me... And the relocatable config is set already. .. I enabled the EFI kernel config parts - no change... the console prints: Booting System... Loading linux... ok Loading iramfs.gz...ok [then reboot] My syslinux.cfg is

Hi Is there a way to attach Usb thumbdrive serial number to mounted drive? I see that there is something in the Winecfg. but it does not seem to either save the serial when I put it. Maybe it is unfuncional. The reason I am looking for a solution for this is that I have Windows app that checks the usb drives real serial number. thanks

I will really hate myself if this has already been solved, i searched the archives but didn't really find anything pertaining to it. I have a 2.88mb dos boot floppy image, with ghost.exe, dos nic drivers, and dos system files. It works fine when burnt to a cd. As for the thumbdrive when trying to configure this hpghost.ima file to run from my syslinux.cfg menu, it works and boots up fine but

I have a bootable usb thumbdrive now... three partions, msdos for syslinux booting, ext3 and swap. How can I grab my QEMU installed centos 4 image and put it on the ext3 /dev/sdc2 partition on my thumbdrive? THanks, Jerry

If you're planning to dual-boot, you'll have to reinstall your other OS after changing the boot type. There shouldn't be any reason to disable UEFI or, in most cases, Secure

Hi all, I did my first steps on syslinux 6.03 with EFI... I prepared the disk with GPT, EFI system partition and formatted it FAT32.

I took the same

I had CentOS 6 installed on an MBR hard disk. I converted the disk to GPT (with UEFI) and installed CentOS 7 on a new partition. CentOS 7 itself seems to work properly. Grub from CentOS 7 automatically created an entry for CentOS 6, but I get an error if I try to boot CentOS 6. The menu entry is: menuentry 'CentOS release 6.10 (Final) (on /dev/sda7)' --class gnu-linux --class gnu

Hi all, I am trying to find information on taking a DVD of centos 5.2 x86_64 and putting it AND my kickstart file on a USB8G thumbdrive. Note - I am not INSTALLING linux on the USB disk just trying to make installation media for it. I am not taking just the bootdisk.img file to make the USB bootable but the entire DVD content on the USB and my kickstart files. I'd like to just be able to
