Memdisk

#1 Post by Anubis » Mon Dec 21, 2009 9:07 am

Hello all, new user here.

With the most recent version of UBCD I find that it frequently will freeze up when trying to load an image with memdisk.

For instance when loading MHDD it will get to "loading boot sector... booting..." and then hard freeze. However, if I manually change the memdisk (23k) to the version from 4.1.1 (20k) it boots fine.

I was wondering if this was a known issue or anyone could tell me the cause.


Also, my thanks to all the people involved in the development of UBCD.

Thanks for the report.
I could reproduce the bug in VirtualBox (did work fine in qemu).

MEMDISK of Syslinux 3.84 solves the problem.
