Confusing error message when pointing the linux installer at a missing directory.
Last night, I was trying to install syslinux (5.01) to a SD card of
mine, writing to a subdirectory to keep the layout neat:
syslinux-5.01/linux# ./syslinux -i -d /boot /dev/mmcblk0p1
/dev/mmcblk0p1: No such file or directory
The message is coming from do_open_file() in syslinux.c: the call to
open() fails because the containing directory isn't present, and then it
calls perror(opt.device).

Syslinux 5.01 does not respond to keyboard
I am having touble using the latest syslinux. I installed it to an SD
card and non-interactive booting works fine (using DEFAULT in
syslinux.cfg). If I need to give input to syslinux at boot time (via
menu, vesamenu or even just the prompt), it ignores keypresses.
Syslinux 4.06 does not suffer from this problem.
I am running an Acer Aspire One AOA150. The POST screen calls it an
Insyde H2OBIOS.
