[syslinux] Is breaking up an APPEND statement into multiple lines now supported in 5.0x or 5.1x?
Hi, I am updating some of our extlinux.conf files and wondering if> The entire APPEND statement must be on a single line. A feature to > break up a long line into multiple lines will be added eventually.(from <http://www.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php/SYSLINUX#APPEND_options...>) is still valid. In other words: Can I break up a long line into multiple lines in 5.01 or 5.10pre now or is that still not supported? Thanks. -- Regards, Igor

If you could point (link) to your current config file, then maybe some suggestions could be posted (specially if you have a specific goal or need in mind that you could share). Regards, Ady.
