Operation Manual

The kernel does not have to be a Linux kernel; it can be a boot sector or a COM-
BOOT le.
APPEND -
Append nothing. APPEND with a single hyphen as argument in a LABEL section
can be used to override a global APPEND.
LOCALBOOT type
On PXELINUX, specifying LOCALBOOT 0 instead of a KERNEL option means
invoking this particular label and causes a local disk boot instead of a kernel boot.
DescriptionArgument
Perform a normal boot
0
Perform a local boot with the Universal Network Driver In-
terface (UNDI) driver still resident in memory
4
Perform a local boot with the entire PXE stack, including
the UNDI driver, still resident in memory
5
All other values are undened. If you do not know what the UNDI or PXE stacks
are, specify 0.
TIMEOUT time-out
Indicates how long to wait at the boot prompt until booting automatically, in units
of 1/10 second. The time-out is canceled as soon as the user types anything on the
keyboard, assuming the user will complete the command begun. A time-out of zero
disables the time-out completely (this is also the default). The maximum possible
time-out value is 35996 (just less than one hour).
PROMPT flag_val
If flag_val is 0, displays the boot prompt only if Shift or Alt is pressed or Caps
Lock or Scroll Lock is set (this is the default). If flag_val is 1, always displays
the boot prompt.
