ONTIMEOUT and menu
Maybe I missed something here.
What I want to happen is PXE boot on a timeout will boot to
the hard drive. But, what happens is my comboot menu, which is default,
loads right away and the ontimeout only happens when I escape out of
the menu.
My pxelinux.cfg/default:
default menu
timeout 100
ontimeout localboot
# The Main Menu
label menu
kernel mainmenu.com
append keeppxe

netback/loopback.c creates them.
It''s effectively a point to point link, allowing domain 0 to connect on
to the bridge in the same manner that other domains do. (before, packets

Configuration question for syslinux 3.11 menu and ontimeout option
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

ONTIMEOUT LOCALBOOT -1 and menu.c32 -- Solution: "ONTIMEOUT .localboot -1" works!
Hi,
I just found this post:
http://syslinux.zytor.com/archives/2005-September/005814.html
ONTIMEOUT was broken in menu.c32, and you fixed it. But the fix broke support for LABEL references in ONTIMEOUT.
I changed my "ONTIMEOUT local" to "ONTIMEOUT .localboot -1" and it works!
Anoying is that I tried ONTIMEOUT LOCALBOOT -1 before. This failed, but after having a look at the

Fallback to second menu entry, ONERROR looping Syslinux Digest, Vol 174, Issue 3
Hi!
I think thats the whole point with ONERROR.
We use it in PXELINUX with a reload label.
So we can reload pxelinux (ONERROR) if someone types something wrong ?intall? instead of ?install?.

ONERROR not triggered in PXELINUX 3.31 when ramdisk missing
Hello,
I tested some things, and found the following:
when the kernel image file is present, but the initrd image is not,
ONERROR is not called, and PXELINUX stays in the prompt forever ...
Other error scenarios tested okay, a down/unresponding TFTP server can
lead to 15-20 minutes delay until all tried filenames timeout out ...
Just to let you know :)

Fallback to second menu entry, ONERROR looping forever
Hello
I want to fallback to a second boot entry, if the kernel is missing for
the first entry.
So I through I could use ONERROR, but syslinux just continue to try
starting the first entry.
Am I doing something wrong? or can't this be done with syslinux?

ONTIMEOUT pxelinux.0
I'm fond of using the above with TIMEOUT 100 and vesamenu.c32 so the
system just cycles the menus repeatedly awaiting user interaction.
However if user interacts, but then don't choose anything for a few
minutes, the next time she chooses the pxelinux.0 option it will hang.
This occurs on different models of HP ProLiant DL G5. The only way to
recover is to hard reset the system.

Does advanced menu actually support ontimeout?
I've finally gotten around to playing with the advanced menu, though
the complex example is definitely still beyond me. I'm trying to
figure out a few basics from it, such as the tab key for line editing
(don't know what I've done wrong here since it seems like I copied
that part right) and the timeout. It looks to me like the only
ontimeout implemented so far is an option to not

tftpd-hpa suggestions
Hello, Peter and others!
there are some issues regarding the tftp-hpa server:
1. Running as Windows service seems to require that the application does
not detach (otherwise "net start" says smth. like "could not start,
the service didn't report any errors").
The attached patch adds the option "-n", which can be used to have
tftpd run in foreground.

winbind users get lost sometimes (repost)
Sorry I'm re-posting this topic because I'm becoming crazy about it
In addiction to what follows (that is the old post) I can add that in some
hours everything return ok.
I use samba and winbind under linux in a NT4 domain.
I've set pam to use winbind for authentication. Every NT domain user has
his home (/home/winnt/j.smith) and can login the machine.
It is going all ok but

[GIT PULL] elflink fixes
Peter,
Paulo reported some problems with his config files under ISOLINUX and

ALLOWOPTIONS config directive.

Dates in C api
r-devel,
I've been trying to write a C plugin for R, and I'm struggling to
understand how dates are represented.
I can create a date in R:
> mydate<-as.Date(1, origin="1900-01-01") mydate
[1] "1900-01-02"
When I pass my date to a plugin, though, it's type is that of a real.
There doesn't seem to be a date type in Rinternals.h, is there a way to

strange algorithm needed
i need a strange algorithm that i can easily do in a loop but need
o do without looping.
suppose i have a vector of length y filled with zeros and a number x.
then, i want a new vector which is (1,......x,1......x,1.....x,1.....y mod
x )
so if y was of length 17 and x was 3, the resultant vector should be
(1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2,3,1,2)
so basically , the algorithm should repeat seq(1,x)

PXE-capable NIC listing?
Trey,
The Compaq NC7770 PCI-X Gigabit Server Adapter supports PXE:

This NIC will be available next month. Also, our strategy is to support PXE on all ProLiant server embedded NICs (10/100/1000) beginning with G2 (generation2) models. Also, most existing DL and all BL servers currently support PXE on their embedded (10/100) NICs. Let

booting w98 bootdisk via memdisk
Hallo,
I try to boot the windows 98 bootdisk via memdisk. It doesn't work
completely.
Booting a freedos FD image works, booting the windows 98 image works
too.
But the windows 98 boot disk then should extract the file "ebd.cab" with
the file "extract.com", and that step fails.
Is that a syslinux problem or a windows problem?
Viele Gruesse!
