[syslinux] question

[Prof S W Damle]

15  jan 2013
 
I feel ashamed myself, for wasting your precious time and making
yourself confused.
 
I apologize from the bottom of my heart for the same.
 
I had both the versions (i)Syslinux-5.00 and (ii) pre-releases of 5.01.
Got mixed up unknowingly.
 
Now I have Deleted "pre-releases of 5.01" from my computer, and done the
needful using "Syslinux-5.00 released on 2012 
DECEMBER 06." 
Once again a request to forgive me.
 
Done the needful as follows:
 
1_ backed up "O:\syslinux\SYSLINUX.CFG" as 
"O:\syslinux\SYSLINUX.CF1"
 
2_ verified that there is no "syslinux.cfg" anywhere in the "O:" drive, 
 
Deleted all "O:\syslinux\*.c32".
 
3_ Under Windows XP, Ran as follows:
 
F:\Documents and Settings\Prof S W Damle>cd F:\Syslinux-5.00\win32
 
F:\syslinux-5.00\win32>syslinux --directory /syslinux --install O:
 
F:\syslinux-5.00\win32>
 
(Now o:\syslinux contains only 3 files >ldlinux.c32, ldlinux.sys,
SYSLINUX.CF1)  
 
4_ Restarted the m/c
 
Received the message as follows:
 
Syslinux 5.00 EDD 2012-12-06 Copyright(c) 1994-2012 H. Peter Anvin et at
Warning: No configuration file found.
boot: "-" blinking.
 
5_ Copied under WinXP, a new the same *.c32 files I had, in the
"O:\syslinux\" with a care NOT overwrite ldlinux.c32 and ldlinux.sys in
that subdirectory.
 
6_ copied "O:\syslinux\SYSLINUX.CF1" to "O:\syslinux\SYSLINUX.CFG".
 
 
7_ booted "O:" with > *O:\syslinux\SYSLINUX.CFG\SYSLINUX.CF1*
 
Received the message as follows:
