Hi, HPA:
Thanks for the nice new features, appreciate that. Syslinux is always a
nice program.
But I encountered a problem now, my client machine uses sis900 chip, and
it still can not run simple menu with pxelinux in this version (3.08-pre11).
It's same situation as I encountered when I used syslinux 3.07, as shown in
http://syslinux.zytor.com/archives/2005-April/005030.html

The sis900 chip is really annoying. The ASUS BIOS flash and firmware is
annoying, too. It refused to upgrade the BIOS by complaining the
firmware is not a right one.
Is that possible I can use pxelinux simple menu in my sis900 client ?
What info should I provide ?

Thanks.
