List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: Hi all. I keep getting the error in the subject line whenever attempting to put Syslinux onto the floppy. As a result, it refuses to write ldlinux.sys. I have tried most if not all the viable combinations, and Syslinux still complains. Anyone know what permissions Syslinux espect on /tmp? I have not been able to determine this so far. Thanks! May you code in the power of the source, may the kernel, libraries, and utilities be with you, throughout all distributions until the end of the epoch.
