[syslinux] using menu.c32 from ISOLINUX to display two menu....

Hey Guys,

I am trying to use the simple menu system to provide menus on my boot CDs.

For testing, I have the following entry in my isolinux.cfg file:
label linuxmenu
        kernel menu.c32
        append menu32.cfg

The option work as it should.

I am trying to display two sets of menus. At the bottom of the
menu32.cfg I have the following:
label 64
        menu label Press enter here for ^64bit installs
        kernel menu.c32
        append /isolinux/menu64.cfg

This entry does not work. Neither does "kernel /isolinux/menu.c32"
and/or "append menu64.cfg"

However, on the boot command line I can type "menu.c32 menu64.cfg" and
the second menu will be displayed.

What is the correct way to have menu.c32 to display two sets of menus
from a boot CD?

Thanks for any help.

Keith
