Bug#750586: syslinux-common: Boot fails. Failed to load ldlinux.c32. File must be in /. Upstream bug

2016-02-12 Thread Diretoria de Pós-Graduação - PRPPG - UFVJM 

Hi,

An iso-dvd (debian-testing-amd64-DVD-1.iso 2016-02-08 08:31) will be in the
same issue? Lack the ldlinux.c32 ?

Or I need to wait the maintainers to apply the patch?

My two notebook, different brand, have the same problem.

Thank you very much.

Bug#750586: syslinux-common: Boot fails. Failed to load ldlinux.c32. File must be in /. Upstream bug

Control: tags -1 + patch

Hi,

I've investigated this bug a bit because of a posting to debian-user@;
the original fix that went into Jessie fixes the netboot.tar.gz images.
The problem is that the installer data in the mirror doesn't contain
ldlinux.c32.

(For a more detailed analysis of the problem that I posted to
debian-user, see [1].)

Additionally, the default pxelinux.0 image from jessie onwards doesn't
support HTTP via gPXE/iPXE anymore, it only supports TFTP. So directly
using a HTTP mirror for PXE booting with gPXE/iPXE is possible up to
Wheezy, but not possible starting with Jessie anymore. I've reported
this against pxelinux as:


But there is an alternative image, lpxelinux.0, which implements HTTP
directly (and doesn't call out to gPXE/iPXE) that may be used instead
of pxelinux.0; it's already included in the pxelinux package from
Jessie onwards.

I've attached a patch against d-i git master that adds the ldlinux.c32
and lpxelinux.0 files to the mirror itself (and not just to the
netboot.tar.gz as before).

I verified that a Jessie installer created in a clean pbuilder
environment with that patch applied works as expected and has
ldlinux.c32 as well as lpxelinux.0 in both netboot.tar.gz files as
well as the mirror file system proper.

It would be great if this patch could be applied not only to Stretch
but also be part of the next point release in Jessie, so that booting
the Jessie installer directly from HTTP works again.

Thanks!

Regards,
Christian

I am able to reproduce this issue with debian-8.2.0-amd64-DVD-1.iso

I thought Debian would be good for a little older PC and I wouldn't
have to worry about it so much, but it appears I must find another
distribution as this bug has been open since 2014.


Hi, I have same problem here with an old Notebook. I reproduce this bug with
debian-testing-amd64-netinst.iso builds 2016-02-10 23:57.

Please, what I could do to install Debian in that Notebook since this bug is
very old?

Thank you so much!

Hi,
I want to know if this bug have been fixed or not?I downloaded the 
netboot.tar.gz yesterday and can not boot by PXE. I got this error of failed to 
load ldlinux.c32Noticed this bug report already more than a year old, I would 
guess the solution should been compiled in the distributed netboot.tar.gz.Or I 
really have to build my own netboot.tar.gz?Thanks,GangOn Wed, 04 Jun 2014
