Thread: iPXE, iSCSI and int13
Post: RE: iPXE, iSCSI and int13
No worries, it was certainly educational. :) I'm reliant on the R.o.M. as I don't have a working build machine at present, and I can't for the life f me seem to get it to show your new revision, so I'... |

Thread: iPXE, iSCSI and int13
Post: RE: iPXE, iSCSI and int13
So, I'm having a looksie at the source, (and learning AT&T ASM syntax, it seems), and I'm drawn to int13_load_mbr in int13.c.

Thread: iPXE, iSCSI and int13
Post: RE: iPXE, iSCSI and int13
Thanks, I've managed to get the R.o.M. working, so have lovely debug images to play with (with syslog - thanks for adding that!)
As expected, I'm getting back a valid MBR: http://pastebin.com/raw/NBe... |

Thread: iPXE, iSCSI and int13
Post: RE: iPXE, iSCSI and int13

With that disk removed, it fails in a much... |

Post: RE: Few questions about sanhook'ing and BIOS

Thread: iPXE, iSCSI and int13
Post: RE: iPXE, iSCSI and int13
Thanks for that, good to know. I copied G4D up to my web server and chained it from there (just using the command line to explore what it could access) as I suspected exiting might be a factor, but st... |

Post: iPXE, iSCSI and int13
Just wondering...this is all very new to me, but do iPXE's int13 hooks mean that you would expect the sanhook'ed iSCSI target to show up as a browsable (hdx) device in GRUB4DOS (command line, (hd<t... |

Post: Few questions about sanhook'ing and BIOS
I'll start by thanking you all for iPXE. I've only recently discovered it, and it seems pretty awesome. So thanks for that.
