Hi,

I am having some problem with LOCALBOOT and menu.c32

This is my isolinux.cfg:
-------------------------------------------
default menu.c32
timeout 50
prompt 0
ontimeout local
menu title "TITLE"

label livecd
      menu default
      manu label "LiveCD"
      kernel gentoo
  	append initrd=initrd.igz root=/dev/ram0 init=/linuxrc looptype=squashfs loop=/ livecd.squashfs dokeymap  cdroot vga=791 splash=silent,theme:livecd-2005.1 CONSOLE=/dev/tty1 quiet

label local
      menu label "Boot from harddrive"
      LOCALBOOT -1

-------------------------------------------

Now if I let it timeout, it just reloads the menu and starts the countdown over again.

By choosing "Boot from harddrive" on the menu the systems boots from the harddrive.

I also tried with ontimeout LOCALBOOT -1 but this give me the same result.
Also LOCALBOOT 0 and LOCALBOOT 0x80 give me the same result, the menu just reloads and the timeout countdown starts all over again.



Anyone who can see what I am doing wrong?


Mvh
