Add reboot to porteus.cfg

Post#1 by Ed_P » 31 Aug 2018, 17:49

I don't want to boot a Porteus option or Windows I want to simply reboot the machine, it has a grub2 boot menu. This doesn't work:

Code: Select all

LABEL reboot
MENU LABEL Reboot
COM32 chain.c32
APPEND hd1 0 file=/boot/syslinux/reboot.cs32
TEXT HELP
    Don't start Porteus at all, just reboot.
ENDTEXT
An error about the MBR appears, unfortunately I don't remember it. The machine is EFI which may contribute to the problem but the USB drive isn't.

Help!
Ed

Thanks Ed_P. This is a bug caused by a missing syslinux file. I will add it to the syslinux folder.

Wear your underpants on the outside and put on a cape.
