get rid of user interaction (syslinux)

#1 Post by neckyo » Sat Jul 25, 2009 7:49 am

Hello.

I need the UBCD to boot silently and with no user intervention.

With the standard version I receive the following message

Press [Enter] to boot the Ultimate Boot CD ...


I want to get rid of this wait (I want UBCD to start with no human intervention)


I've tracked the message to /syslinux/startup.msg

How can I avoid this question and start withouth waiting for a key to be pressed?

Thanks in advance

Download UBCD50b12 (it goes straight to the menu, no need to press a key).

Or replace the content of isolinux.cfg and syslinux.cfg with:

Code: Select all

DEFAULT main

LABEL main
KERNEL menu.c32
APPEND /menus/main.cfg
You can delete the startup.msg file.
