jtroberts Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 I would like make the "unRAID OS GUI Mode" the default boot option. IE: No Prompt, default. I'm a little unsure how to do it and fear I'll make my system unbootable if I screw up. So do I simply modify syslinux.cfg? Current syslinux.cfg default /syslinux/menu.c32 menu title Lime Technology, Inc. prompt 0 timeout 50 label unRAID OS menu default kernel /bzimage append pci-stub.ids=8086:105e initrd=/bzroot label unRAID OS GUI Mode kernel /bzimage append pci-stub.ids=8086:105e initrd=/bzroot,/bzroot-gui label unRAID OS Safe Mode (no plugins, no GUI) kernel /bzimage append initrd=/bzroot unraidsafemode label Memtest86+ kernel /memtest Is this correct? Would I simply move the line "menu default" from "label unRAID OS" to "label unRAID OS GUI Mode" like below??? default /syslinux/menu.c32 menu title Lime Technology, Inc. prompt 0 timeout 50 label unRAID OS kernel /bzimage append pci-stub.ids=8086:105e initrd=/bzroot label unRAID OS GUI Mode menu default kernel /bzimage append pci-stub.ids=8086:105e initrd=/bzroot,/bzroot-gui label unRAID OS Safe Mode (no plugins, no GUI) kernel /bzimage append initrd=/bzroot unraidsafemode label Memtest86+ kernel /memtest Thanks in advance 1 Quote Link to comment

RobJ Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 I thought this might be a good FAQ entry, so created it: What is "Boot GUI mode", and how do I change to it? Feel free to edit it, or suggest changes. 2 2 Quote Link to comment

Feel free to edit it, or suggest changes. I also want to auto-boot into GUI mode. I followed the link to the FAQ and tried to do what it said. What is in the syslinux configuration section does not match the description in the FAQ. Has the method to accomplish this changed in the newer version? Quote Link to comment

You just need to move the line that says "menu default" to the section you want to be the "menu default". 1 Quote Link to comment

Shlazor Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 I never saw that toggle on my screen. As soon as I saw that in your reply and clicked it, I could get to the setting. Thanks!!!!!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment
