I have just pushed out Syslinux 3.81-pre7; the only delta over -pre6 is a small change to meminfo.c32. I expect to make a 3.81 release probably early next week, so this is a last call notice. If you have any outstanding issues, or you have tests you want to do and want some more time (Dag - I know you said you were going to try to do some tests over the weekend), please speak up *now*. -hpa

But didn't get hold of the physical machines during work. (it is hard to see the CPU usage on a physical machine on a remote location anyway, just wanted to see if it would lock up or something). Can't test on physical hardware before monday, but looks fine for me on what I tested. -- -- dag wieers, dag at wieers.com, http://dag.wieers.com/ -- [Any errors in spelling, tact or fact are transmission errors]

This changes the default partition type to 0x17, "Windows Hidden IFS" which seemed to me to be the best variant. There is currently a distinct possibility for a -pre9 depending on one particular issue related to memory probing, but other than that I really mean to get this out next week. -hpa
