Helle,
I'm facing a strange issue with memdisk
The context :
syslinux 3.75
gpxelinux.0
the gpxe stript called from a menu executed through menu.c32 :
#!gpxe
kernel /modules/memdisk initrd=/freedos
initrd /freedos
The output before the freeze :
/boot.gpxe. ok
/modules/memdisk. ok
/freedos...... ok

Ramdisk at 0xdfb00000, length 0x0016bd50
command line: initrd=/freedos
MEMDISK: Image has fractional end sector
Disk is fd0, 1455 K, C/H/S = 97/2/15 (fd/fd), EDD off, rw
Using safe INT 15h access to high memory
Total size needed = 2176 bytes, allocating 3K
Old dos memory at 0x88800 (map says 0x9f400), loading at 0x87c00
1588: 0xffff 15E801: 0x3c00 0xdeb0
INT 13 08: Success, count = 2, BPT = f000:a13c
old: int13 = e80005f3 int15 = f000f859 int1e = f000efbb
new: int13 = 87c0000a int15 = 87c002d9 int1e = f000efbb
Loading boot sector... FR<p>Dbooting...
After that the server is frozen.
The floppy image is correct and its size is 1440 K (1474560 bytes) not
1455 K as indicated above
I have the same results on 2 servers whith different architectures
Can someone tell me about the exceedings 15696 bytes (and what mistake
I have made) ?
Thank you
Regards
Pierre
