itimpi Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Is it possible to change the 4 seconds delete while the menu is presented at boot-up? TIA RJJ The boot menu details is specified by the 'timeout' entry in syslinux/syslinux.cfg on the boot device. It is a text file, but make sure you edit using an editor that understands Linux end-of-line (e.g. notepad+). Quote Link to comment
trurl Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Assuming you are on v6, this can be edited in the webGUI. From Main, Boot Device tab, click on Flash. Then from the Flash device page, Syslinux Configuration tab, edit the boot menu as desired. Quote Link to comment
[email protected] Posted April 6, 2015 Author Share Posted April 6, 2015 Thanks guys: For anyone else looking at this then the line in the file is 'timeout 50' Setting it to 0 meant the machine didn't automatically boot Setting it to 1 meant is booted immediately RJJ Quote Link to comment
s1l3nce Posted February 19 Share Posted February 19 (edited) Sorry for resurrecting this but what does the 50 mean? Because the boot splash screen does not stay for 50 seconds by default. edit: I respond myself. "The timeout value is in tenths of a second. The default is 50, or five seconds." So a timeout 1 would mean 0.1 seconds and not 1 second. For 1 second I should write timeout 10 Sorry for my lack of linux knowledge Edited February 19 by s1l3nce Quote Link to comment
