I also want to give a special thank you to my new(ish) employer, Intel Corporation, for letting me continue to work on Syslinux. :) From here, onward and upward. I

Hi all, I have just released Syslinux 3.83. Special thanks to my employer, Intel, for letting me spend time on this. It is somewhat of a meager release despite four months, as most of the work has gone into the future-work branches. -hpa Changes in 3.83: * PXELINUX: clear memory before handing over to a chainloaded NBP. This may help avoid a bug in Windows RIS. *

From: Matt Fleming <matt.fleming at linux.intel.com> Move the MCONFIG files into a mk/ directory and give them more descriptive names. This is purely a cosmetic change to make the 'include' directives a bit more coherent by making it obvious exactly which MCONFIG file we're including. For example, in com32/lua/src/Makefile we exchange the line, include ../../MCONFIG for the

With the UI directive specifying the menu system, the DEFAULT directive can be used to select the default entry inside the menus. * kbdmap.c32: new module

Hello everyone, I have just released SYSLINUX 3.70, which is the first version which includes gPXE for support of non-TFTP network scripts, as well as a large number of other enhancments. gPXE support is still somewhat experimental - in particular it still doesn't support chaining other NBPs. Very special thanks to: - rPath, Inc, my employer, for the uncountable hours I've spent

Changes in 3.73: * Upgrade gPXE to release version 0.9.5. * Fix a number of build errors on various platforms. * Handle systems with E820 "extended attributes" per ACPI 3.

Hello everyone, I have just released SYSLINUX 3.71. This is pretty much a bug fix and hardware support release. The major new *features* are the "initrd" command (syntactic sugar, but it supposedly makes it easier for some tools), the "hide" option to chain.c32, and the ifcpu64.c32 module. As always, special thanks to rPath, Inc., my employer, for the countless hours I

Special thanks to Stas Kysel of rPath, Inc. for spotting this problem and giving me an excellent test case; and of course to rPath, Inc. in general for being my employer and being extremely supportive of my SYSLINUX work! I have also
