I am getting the following error on boot on a new install Centos 51: #/bin/sh ro no such file or directory then a kernel panic I have traced it to the call ''switchroot'' in the init script in the initrd. the exact same build without zen has no problems. the boot messages look like: Attaching to iSCSI storage iscsistart: transport class version 2.0-724. iscsid version 2.0-865

New module which check if the PLoP Boot Loader already has booted a CDROM or USB drive by checking for the presence of the PLoP INT13h hook. The following assembly code (NASM) can detect the PLoP INT13h hook: mov eax,'PoLP' ; Reverse of 'PLoP' mov ebp,'DKHC' ; Reverse of 'CHKD' int 13h cmp eax,' sey' ; Reverse of 'yes ' jz

Hi Bootmeisters, I am using gpxelinux.0 + sanboot.c32 to boot a diskless machine into Linux. I would like to use device-mapper-multipath to provide fault tolerant access to its root disk. Although I am able to do this by hardcoding the additional paths in the initrd, it would be better if the bootloader could pass the information in the iBFT (iSCSI Boot Firmware Table). However, at the

Hello, I have a problem with a comboot 16 bits program for syslinux, I use the API openFile, ReadFile and CloseFile for read my own config file. It's ok. I use the int13h to write a floppy disk (syslinux runs on a USB stick), after the first call to int13h, all the call to openFile return an error. Do you know what's the problem? Is it possible to use int13h when we use syslinux API?

greetings, i just know i have read several times on this list and in other places that on a RAID5 array that the MBR should be placed on the /boot partition. is this truly correct and if so, why? my experiences of putting the MBR on the /boot partition are contrary to that it will even work and boot that way... comments please? regards, - rh -- Robert Hanson Abba Communications

With windows, if your "virtual" floppy is drive B:, then windows will treat it specially. It will basically copy the contents into memory from real mode using int13h, knowing that it will not be able to access the device after it switches to protected mode. I asked a few days ago about support for making a memdisk image behave as drive B:, but got no answer. :-( We have our

I''ve now given up trying to get grub working with my particular e1000 adapter, I''ve tried all the patches and all I can get is something that works a little bit but never past the grub menu. I''m sure I read something somewhere about a tool which would combine a multiboot image + modules into a single bootable item which could be loaded by lilo, and am hoping that the

Hello, I want to implement a diskless xen hypervisor. The way I suppose it will work is xen booted over pxe and getting iscsi san storage to store vm images. Is solution like that usable ? _______________________________________________ Xen-users mailing list Xen-users@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-users

Hi, I once again have a problem with memdisk failing to boot a harddisk image to update my Thinkpad X200s firmware. I extracted the harddisk image from the eltorito type 4 ISO using the isobar tool. Then I added memdisk using this image as initrd to my grub, rebooted and it boots into PC DOS and then freezes (ctrl-alt-del still works to reboot the system). Inside Qemu however it works fine

Hi SysLinux, i'm using pxelinux.0 and memdisk to successfully boot dos on my PXE capable workstation. But aber the DOS boot I need to get access to Drive A: again. My DOS bootimage is putting all necessary stuff into it's own RAMdisk. How can I disable memdisk, so that it releases drive A: (does not necessarily free the allocated memory for it's RAMdisk ..) with kind regards / mit

Hello CentOS, Does anyone know if there's a driver out there that'll enable CentOS 4.x to use the Intel Matrix SATA RAID settings on the 915 chipsets? -- Best regards, Mickael mailto:mike at kamloopsbc.com www.MickaelMaddison.com

I tested the memdisk-acpi branch with following results: - Bochs The BIOS provides a RSDT. Available tables are RSDT, FACP, DSDT, FACS, APIC, SSDT. memdisk-acpi is able to hook the SSDT. - VMware The BIOS provides a RSDT and XSDT. Available tables are RSDT, FACP, DSDT(*), FACS(*), BOOT(*), APIC(*) and XSDT, FACP, DSDT(*), FACS(*), BOOT(*), APIC(*). Tables marked with an asterisk (*) are

Hello, This version addresses comments by Gerd and Michael: - instead of returning -EPIPE if host is not connected in the write case, just block the write if it's a blocking file and return -EAGAIN if it's non-blocking. - Removes early_console_printk after the first console is found - Adds early_put_chars fix by Fran??ois Diakhat??. It still needs a sign-off by him. Standard

I used syslinux 4.03 for my brand new usb-stick (16GB FAT32, no Partition Table). It works, but on some computers i get "boot error". My investigation reveals three bugs in the boot code. Int 13 function 8 destroys the contents of register ES. Ah, now it is corrected in version 4.04 pre 5. Well done. I am happy now. But there are still other bugs. Look on version 4.04 pre 5,

Hello all, This new patchset switches over to using the control queue for port discovery so that we can stay in sync with the host for port enumeration and also don't use bitmaps to limit us to config space sizes. This changes the ABI, so it would be better to merge this for 2.6.34 so that we don't have to worry about released kernels with the older ABI. Amit Shah (7): MAINTAINERS:

SYSLINUX 2.10 2004-06-18 That is all I get when I boot my system off a CompactFlash card in an IDE adapter, no matter how long I wait. What debugging steps are recommended? I'm willing to get down and dirty with assembler, and I'd appreciate suggestions of what to suspect and where to start. Details: This is a Crucial 128MB CompactFlash card in a non-hot-swap CF-IDE adapter which
