FYI,
The following has been reported:
_ OK: Syslinux EFI_IA32 -> x86_64 Linux kernel 4.4.x
_ KO: Syslinux EFI_IA32 -> x86_64 Linux kernel >= 4.9.x
Note: Where Syslinux is failing to boot the kernel, grub2 is OK.
Considering other reports, I am _guessing_ that Syslinux is probably OK
with kernel 4.8.x too and that the failure starts with kernel 4.9.x.
Please note that this is UEFI IA32 with x86_64 processor / kernels.
Tests were performed on QEMU and on real hardware (e.g. some ATOM-based
models and similar match use this setup).
It would be helpful if additional users would also test (e.g. qemu /
OVMF / KVM / others) and report back.
Developers and advance users are especially invited to be involved.
