I can confirm that the memdisk from the centos-5 pkg syslinux-3.11-4 does indeed boot 2880K floppy images. /Peter Yes, from what I have read it should even boot floppies of 8-9 meg. I found a script used to extend the size but nothing I do is working for some reason. I really only need about 2.88meg. How did you go about building your image, and what is your default file syntax?

[CentOS] PXE Booting floppy image
Anyone know the correct syntax for specifying a floppy image in the /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default file? I am trying to use: label Dos Bootdisk MENU LABEL Dos bootdisk FDIMAGE discimage.img But when I select it the menu, I get a message saying Automatic boot in 30 seconds and nothing happens. I would use: label Dos Bootdisk 2 MENU LABEL Dos bootdisk 2 kernel memdisk append initrd=discimage.img but this is a 2.88meg floppy and memdisk wont boot it?
