similar to: editing kernel options before boot

Hi All, I have used menu.c32 to offer several booting options to our users via pxelinux... the icing on the cake would be if there was some mechanism whereby the pxelinux boot could be restarted, with the usual search for pxelinux.cfg/... files... all without a reboot and going through POST. Does anyone know if this is possible or if a comboot module exists for such a thing ? Cheers, Doug

hi I have download the syslinux-3.51 source package and i have tried to compile syslinux with MinGw. I got the following error message. *********************************************************************** $ make nasm -O99 -f bin -DDATE_STR="'0x47bd5366'" -DHEXDATE="0x47bd5366" \ -DMAP=isolinux.map -l isolinux.lst -o isolinux.bin isolinux.asm

I have three questions. If these are not currently possible, consider it a feature request: 1. Is it possible to create label aliases, such that one label will simply use the configuration of another, without having to completely copy the configuration. It would also be great if these aliases could cross INCLUDE boundaries, such that a label can call a label defined in an included file.

The attached config works, but gives 2 error messages that get covered up by the GUI screen so fast I cannot read them. I think they are probably about having 'LABEL' with nothing after it. I was trying to follow the example in menu.doc but somehow I'm doing it wrong. Please consider helping me figure out how to get the same resulting GUI menu without any error messages. I am using

Hello. I am trying to run advanced dialog-like menus from com32. But I can not boot anything... ? it always fails. :-) So, my /path/to/pxelinux.cfg/default looks like this: --------------8<-------------- DEFAULT pxemenu/fancy.c32 PROMPT 0 IMPLICIT 1 TIMEOUT 600 LABEL test MENU LABEL Test KERNEL suse10_3/vmlinuz APPEND initrd=suse10_3/initrd.img ....(and so on)....

Hello, Sorry for two messages, but I thought it would make more sense to use one message per question. Why do so many (but not all) AD howtos mention LDAP? Without configuring LDAP I can use getent passwd or getent group to see the users in the AD. Is there a benefit to also editing nsswitch to query LDAP? Degbert.

I'm having a problem with kadmin not doing what klist says should work. klist will show my keytab file (with minus k), but when I try and use a principal in that keytab with kinit, I get an error: kinit(v5): Client not found in Kerberos database while getting initial credentials I setup both the Windows server and the Linux client, so I've made a mistake somewhere. What have I done

Hi everyone, The CentOS project is looking for more slogans that may end up on promotional material (eg media, flyers, posters or stickers). We already collected a few funny, ironic, sarcastic or even distasteful ones. Feel free to visit our Slogans wiki page for a good laugh or rude offenses and add your own slogan by sending them to this thread. See: http://wiki.centos.org/Promo/Slogans

Hi all, I've updated our Team page a bit, added a table for everyone already there. Now I still don't like the fact that we have the distinction between the Core members (whatever that means) and the others. Some have a @centos.org email address, we could use that as a distinction ? I do think we need to make that page exclusive to people that have some sort of responsibility, and

It appears that the 3.74 completely broke the "keeppxe" directive -- not due to the command-line parser, but due to mishandling of the flag later. I consider this to be severe enough to do a short-cycle 3.75. As a result, I would like help with: a) are there any other bugs that snuck through? b) once I have a 3.75-pre1, I would really appreciate help testing it. The goal is to have

Hi dag! Thx for your reply! So, there will be no release in the near future of centos 5 for Z? At the moment we got a realy small z/linux installation, but i love it. Keeping the TCO as low as we can was necessary to satisfy the decision-maker. So we decided to choos a free linux distribution, centos was a good decicion we thougt. (redhat / fedora was always my favorite flavor *g*) It would

Hi, I think I found a problem with syslinux where if you have an entry in the syslinux config file (eg. linux) and you type some additional parameters on the boot-prompt (eg. noacpi) the last character of the prompt is cut off (and missing from /proc/cmdline). This does not seem to happen for the append line in the config file, only for additional parameters on the boot prompt. (I guess it
