[syslinux] Useful Info about Dell latitude E5510

[Cockburn, Beau]

Hi H. Peter Anvin,

 

I wanted to thank you for sharing information about PXE, I have used
this a lot and I wanted to share something that may be important for you
and your readers.

 

I have many different Dell model, they all worked well with PXE booting
however not for E5510. I noticed that using "LocalBoot -1 or 0" doesn't
work well. What I did use for Latitude E5510 (Bios A06) was same to
"LOCALBOOT on IBM x3850 X5"

 

COM32 Chain.c32

Append hd0 0

 

Not "Append hd0"

 

It works and boots to local disk without any problems.

 

Thanks
