Hi guys
In the menu.slt file
I passed different paramaters to linuxrc but the latest
parameters "VNC=1 VNCPassword=Administrator1" are not read.
It seems a question of max length. On the prompt (that I see after the command pause)
the parameters there are but really the latest one are not considered.

Any idea?

title OpenSuSE 10.2 YAST,VNC..
kernel (hd0,0)/linuxkernel/linux devfs=mount,dall ramdisk_size=65536 \
install=smb://mydomain;myuser:mypwd@141.137.37.123/suse/SLES10/ \
AutoYast=ftp://myuser:mypwd@141.137.1.123/yast.xml \
netdevice=eth1 hostip=141.137.37.32 netmask=255.255.255.0 gateway=141.137.37.2 \
VNC=1 VNCPassword=Administrator1
pause
initrd (hd0,0)/linuxkernel/initrd


I though to use a info file like that
title OpenSuSE 10.2
kernel (hd0,0)/linuxkernel/linux devfs=mount,dall ramdisk_size=65536 info=hd://sda1/info
pause
initrd (hd0,0)/linuxkernel/initrd

but it seems that the info file is not found and then doesn't works

the content of the file info is like that:

VNC:1
VNCPassword:Administrator1
..
..

Many thanks in advance

Regards

This is a known problem and has been solved since the build 2008-03-14.

Your kernel line length > 256, so you will encounter problems with grub4dos versions older than 2008-03-14.

The version 2008-03-14 can accept a longer line upto 1024 characters. The problem was fixed by the maintainer Bean123.
