I have released SYSLINUX 2.10-pre2. I *really* would like testing
reports for this one, especially ISOLINUX, since I've included Knut
Petersen's fix for Award BIOSes...
Changes in 2.10:
* MEMDISK: Handle images compressed with zip as well as with
gzip. Some Windows-based image tools apparently generate
these kinds of images by default. Patch by Patrick
LoPresti.
* Major menu improvement from Murali Ganapathy.
* ISOLINUX: Wonderfully sick and brilliant workaround for
severe bugs in certain Award BIOSes; from Knut Petersen.
As usual:

-hpa
The menu wont compile for me, the version in 2.09 does compile. ~/syslinux-2.10-pre2/menu$ gcc --version gcc (GCC) 3.3.3 (Debian 20040401) ~/syslinux-2.10-pre2/menu$ make gcc -m32 -funsigned-char -g -W -Wall -march=i386 -falign-functions=0 -falign-jumps=0 -falign-loops=0 -Os -MMD -S -o biosio.s biosio.c biosio.c: In function `scrollup': biosio.c:141: error: invalid lvalue in asm statement make: *** [biosio.s] Error 1 -Aaron On Mon, 17 May 2004, H.
