The 'extlinux' command supports several (mounted) filesystems, not only extN. This series of patches seems to be relevant for extN only...

Hello syslinux, Merry Christmas! These patches will make extlinux work with umounted ext2/3/4 filesystem, for example: $ extlinux -i /dev/sdXN or $ extlinux -i file_block Also it can work with something like: $ extlinux /dev/sdXN --reset-adv or $ extlinux file_block --reset-adv We don't use a new option (I planed to use "-d" but it is already in use), it will check whether the target is a directory or device and decide what to do, it would stop and...

Add install_file_to_device() to support unmounted ext2, ext3 and ext4 filesystem. Usage: $ extlinux -i /dev/sdXN or $ extlinux -i file_block We don't need any new options, it will check whether the target is a directory or device and decide what to do, it would stop and error if the device is mounted. More info: * It will use libext2fs to read and write the file. * It will be used when the target is a extX device or file block, an...
