Etherboot 5.4.0
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
PXE is now supported. You will also need to configure your server to
|
||
|
|
provide a pxelinux.0 loader file, kernel and initrd images, and a
|
||
|
|
pxelinux.cfg directory with a appropriate configuration spec files.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
See the PXELINUX home page at:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
http://syslinux.zytor.com/pxe.php
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
for more information.

There is no longer a default target for make. You must specify an
|
||
|
|
argument to make. Help text is now provided to indicate possible make
|
||
|
|
targets.
|

|
|
|

|
It should be possible to compile Etherboot with gcc >= 3.3.3, including
|
||
|
|
gcc 3.4.x now that a couple of bugs have been tracked down. Please mail
|
||
|
|
reports of success or failure to the etherboot-users list, together with
|
||
|
|
the versions of gcc and binutils used.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
gcc 2.x is not supported anymore. You need at least gcc 3.x to compile
|
||
|
|
etherboot due to C99 constructs.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Removed etherboot(-pci)?.* rule because there are too many drivers and
|
||
|
|
the image will no longer fit in memory. I don't want to choose a subset
|
||
|
|
of drivers as everybody will have different preferences. So I'm going to
|
||
|
|
piss off everybody equally by deleting the rule. Use the multiple driver
|
||
|
|
rule (driver1--driver2--...) and select your own subset of drivers.
|
||
|

|
In order to create .iso and .liso images you will need to have the
|
||
|
|
packages mtools-3.9.9 or later, and syslinux-2.08 or later installed on
|
||
|
|
your system. These packages are available in various locations and
|
||
|
|
formats. .liso images are like .iso but use floppy emulation. If you
|
||
|
|
have a very old BIOS and .liso images don't work you may wish to try
|
||
|
|
adding the -s option of syslinux as a last resort.
|
||
|

|
EMERGENCYDISKBOOT has been renamed EXIT_IF_NO_OFFER, which describes it
|
||
|
|
better.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Menuing using DHCP options (mknbi/menu.c) has been removed.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.exe format can be generated by doesn't work so not publicised.
