Anyone here maintains the installation guide?
refer to this link https://www.debian.org/
I found that these instructions in does not work for me:
I might be wrong, but i found that the official syslinux site warns us about using APPEND directive in syslinux 5.00 and above4.3.3.2. Adding the installer image
Next you should create asyslinux.cfgconfiguration file, which at a bare minimum should contain the following two lines :default vmlinuz append initrd=initrd.gz
Take the following simple configuration:
DEFAULT mykernel APPEND root=/dev/sda2Note that the APPEND line here is a global directive, as it is not part of any LABEL entry.
For Syslinux 4.xx and older, the above simple configuration works as (it used to be) expected.
Since version 5.00, the result for the above sample configuration is that the root=/dev/sda2 argument is not parsed, which will lead to unexpected results, most probably with some kind of failure to boot the OS. In other words, the global APPEND is ignored by the DEFAULT directive.
For the above example, the configuration could be re-written as:
DEFAULT mykernel root=/dev/sda2or even better as:
DEFAULT mylabel LABEL mylabel KERNEL mykernel APPEND root=/dev/sda2
