Boot Windows From Syslinux Efi

Hi, I am a newbie to Syslinux. I want to boot Linux 2.6 kernel on my board that has Intel core i7 with EFI support. So, I tried with creating a bootable pendrive with syslinux on it (steps as suggested in the Syslinux documentation). Although it worked with my older machine (i386), it is not working with my new board. I want to have some clue on the following: - Does SYSLINUX support I7 Sandy bridge?

To boot Windows x64 Setup in UEFI mode select 'Microsoft Windows x86_64 UEFI-GPT Setup' in the GRUB-UEFI menu. To boot Windows x64 Setup in BIOS mode select 'Microsoft Windows x86_64 BIOS-MBR Setup' in the SYSLINUX menu.

- Does SYSLINUX supports EFI? If so how to install it. Any help in this regard would be highly appreciated. Hi, I am a newbie to Syslinux.

Does it have any controls to manage the BOOT ORDER.i.e. What happens when you put a bootable CD/DVD into the machine? EFI shouldn't make a difference, but if there is any sort of an option to select boot order when booting (like from the BIOS a prompt to hit F12 or some other key), try that too.

Bottom line, make sure it can boot from NOT the main hard drive, then go from there. Hi, I am a newbie to Syslinux.

How do you know it isn't working? What have you tried and what do you see? I want to have some clue on the following: - Does SYSLINUX support I7 Sandy bridge?

Right now, Syslinux is a BIOS-based boot-loader. Efforts are underway to make a Syslinux.EFI module for use with [U]EFI-based (non-BIOS-based) computers. If you join the Syslinux mailing-list, you can watch the progress. Many [U]EFI systems have a 'BIOS mode' where they can boot in a 'legacy' or 'BIOS-emulation' mode. If you can do that, then you might have some better luck.

Perhaps you could share the computer model and someone might be able to share their experience.

Bottom line, make sure it can boot from NOT the main hard drive, then go from there. Scott The board supports to change the boot sequence (with F2 key) during the BIOS initialization. However, it is not able to boot from the pendrive on which SYSLINUX 4.02 is installed. However, the same pendrive works fine on other i386 machine. Is it that, there is some set-up/configuration required to boot Syslinux on an efi based board?? Does it have any controls to manage the BOOT ORDER.i.e. What happens when you put a bootable CD/DVD into the machine?
