I got about the same one. Debian 4.9.2-10. Anybody can give me hints how to install gcc 5 as alternative compiler on a Debian 8.1 ? (I am still learning about my new system.) To poma: There must be a character between 128 and 255 (-128 to -1) in the SYSAPPEND strings which needs the "c >= 0" term to survive. Any idea what it could be in the light of the list in com32/include/syslinux/sysappend.h ? To all: Any idea how to inspect those strings while booting or while an operating system is up ? Have a nice day :) Thomas

Therefore I do not want to stuff too many things into the 6.04 release but hold them for 6.05. </quote> Wishful thinking gets you nowhere. :)

It means we're getting ready and have something that we want more people to test, especially those who can't reliably build test binaries, especially those who can't build any. Yes there are open issues at this point but I'd say we're getting close to ready. -- -Gene

You should be constructive, concise yet including relevant details and use the right tools for the job at hand. I believe I've explained these. -- -Gene
