similar to: SYSLINUX 3.73-pre2 (release candidate)

I just pushed out SYSLINUX 3.73-pre3. The only significant difference over -pre2 was changing MEMDISK to use "safeint" by default. -hpa

It appears that increasing the command line limit to 1023 caused the .bss memory area to overflow. Unfortunately NASM didn't detect this as it ought to have and therefore I didn't catch it as an error. I have dropped the command line limit to 511 characters and released it as 3.09-pre2. This is a release candidate; please test it out and if it works I'll make it 3.09. -hpa

Some time ago, I sent a email to list. With my perfect english, wasn't possible explain my problem, then I recorded a video, end upload to youtube. Please watch the video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z1KJ8sA4_5w Samuel Rios Carvalho

I've been working with Matt Burgess here on this problem, and have found the following: syslinux 3.08-pre10 ? broken >>> config.inc:max_cmd_len=255 syslinux 3.08-pre11 ? works >>> config.inc:max_cmd_len=1023 syslinux 3.08 ? works >>> config.inc:max_cmd_len=1023 syslinux 3.09-pre1 ? works >>> config.inc:max_cmd_len=1023 syslinux 3.09-pre2 ? broken

I have released SYSLINUX 2.10-pre2. I *really* would like testing reports for this one, especially ISOLINUX, since I've included Knut Petersen's fix for Award BIOSes... Changes in 2.10: * MEMDISK: Handle images compressed with zip as well as with gzip. Some Windows-based image tools apparently generate these kinds of images by default. Patch by Patrick

I just released 6.02-pre2 which includes support for booting 32-bit kernels from efi64. I know a number of people wanted this feature, so hopefully it will be tested in various environments. One thing to note is that it is not possible to boot a 32-bit kernel from efi64 via the EFI handover protocol (or from firmware via the EFI boot stub), but the kernel loader in Syslinux is smart enough to

Hi all, It has been the case for quite a while that the master tree is unambiguously better than 6.03. I have thus tagged and pushed out a syslinux-6.04-pre2 release, however, due to the issues with continuing to keep the main archive on kernel.org, I have moved the release archive to: https://www.zytor.com/pub/syslinux/ Other than the URL, there is no difference from the kernel.org archive.

Hi all, I just pushed out SYSLINUX 3.72-pre2. It has a rather cool new feature: a hack to ISOLINUX to create a single image which can be booted either from CD-ROM or from what BIOS considers a hard disk medium (USB keys, etc.) -hpa

I just pushed out Syslinux 3.86-pre2. Absolutely last call for Syslinux 3.86. -hpa

Changes in 3.73: * Upgrade gPXE to release version 0.9.5. * Fix a number of build errors on various platforms. * Handle systems with E820 "extended attributes" per ACPI 3. Someone "cleverly" decided to change the E820 spec in a backwards-incompatible manner! * MEMDISK: default to "safeint". * Adopt the moniker "The Syslinux Project", standard

The -pre2 version of HDT 0.3.6 is out. Gert was a great source of motivation for making that -pre2. He found many bugs and gave nice ideas. Thanks Gert for your time and your _many_ tests. This release will be more or less what will be included in the incoming syslinux 3.84. Since -pre1, here come the Changelog * Reporting CPU L1 & L2 cache * Report "Hw.Virt" in cpu

For the boot floppy at http://superkeen.com/peacecorpsfiles/FUZOMA14.IMG using memdisk from syslinux version 3.72 boots correctly, but for memdisk versions newer than 3.72 (I tested 3.73, 3.75, 3.85, and 3.86) all hang at boot with the following message: Loading boot sector... booting FreeDOS kernel - SVN (build 2039 OEM:0xfd [compiled Oct 2 2009]) Kernel compatibility 6.22 - BORLANDC ... XMGR,

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
