January 6, 200917 yr Quick and maybe dumb question. What are naming rules for the rootfs and initrd images? Are they not allowed to have numbers in them? These files will boot fine from loader bzroot bzimage These files will not boot bzroot433 bzimage433 Thanks, Paul
January 6, 200917 yr I've always been under the impression that they are limited to 8.3 file names. Perhaps that was only in an older version of syslinux, but I've stuck with it and have no problems.
January 6, 200917 yr Author Ahhh... OK, I will stick with those conventions as well. That sounds reasonable. Maybe there are versions of syslinux that don't impose 8.3 conventions, but apparently this version does.
January 6, 200917 yr Yup, that's probably the issue: See here: http://syslinux.zytor.com/wiki/index.php/Common_Problems The DOS file name does not match the "long" file name you used.
