Hi Marko, It was my (dMb) decision to move the kernel (linux) and syslinux.* to the /syslinux/ sub-directory for Bering-uClibc 4, because: - The root directory is getting very cluttered - Syslinux looks for /syslinux/syslinux.cfg before /syslinux.cfg (as documented at http://syslinux.zytor.com/wiki/index.php/SYSLINUX#How_do_I_Configure_SYSLINUX.3F) File ldlinux.sys is intentionally not included in the LEAF tarball. This file *must* be created by running the syslinux command, and it *must not* be moved otherwise the disk will not boot. Please will you confirm that you are running the syslinux command on the CF drive *before* you un-tar the LEAF .tar.gz image. When I try the "-d syslinux" argument it complains that the /syslinux/ directory does not exist. (Works OK if this directory is created manually, and creates /syslinux/ldlinux.sys) dMb ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Special Offer-- Download ArcSight Logger for FREE (a $49 USD value)!
