What mix? My understanding was "localboot" is a built-in command - e.g. "localboot -1" in a menu.c32 configuration as I mentioned. There's no apparent fetch attempt for a localboot module. -Alan

There's no apparent fetch attempt for a localboot module.You could be right at that. Yes, it means I would be wrong about localboot being an external module. In the directory with syslinux source tree where I did `make` $ find . -name localboot.c32 ./efi64/com32/samples/localboot.c32 ./efi32/com32/samples/localboot.c32 ./bios/com32/samples/localboot.c32 Thing I'm try to say: there are localboot.c32 modules being build.> > > Has anyone any advice on how to make localboot work on EFI, any tricks? > > > Is there any other alternatives?

I did not have those installed, and were no requests for them in TFTP logs. I have tried installing the efi64 localboot.c32 module, and tried replacing "localboot -1" with "kernel localboot.32 -1", with the same result. I could add print statements, but as of yet have no idea where. -Alan
