dCore Boot using Syslinux
Syslinux is a popular boot loader known for it's simplicity and modularity, quite similar to Grub Legacy. The following example demonstrates how to configure Syslinux to boot dCore from a USB device. In this example the 'ldlinux.sys' and 'menu.c32' files must be available under '/boot/'.
ui menu.c32
default dCore
timeout 45
label dCore
menu label dCore on a stick
kernel /boot/vmlinuz-trusty
append initrd=/boot/ub-dCore-trusty.gz waitusb=15 blacklist=pcspkr tce=LABEL="dCORE-USB" home=LABEL="dCORE-USB" opt=LABEL="dCORE-USB" host=dCstick lang="de_CH.UTF-8" desktop=openbox tz=CET-1CEST,M3.5.0,M10.5.0/3 multivt syslog showapps pause
Using Syslinux 3.63-3.70 on a USB drive with a FAT32 file system, an example boot stanza might be /vmlinu~1 initrd=/dcore-~1.gz, review Syslinux and DOS-8.3 file names for more information. Also review dCore Test Drive on a USB Stick and the dCore Installation page for more information regarding installations and boot managers.
