Hi,
i have now sparsely modified the last paragraph of
http://www.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php/SYSLINUX#Creating_a_Bootable_Disk
added a new section
http://www.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php/Common_Problems#Bad_Heritage_on_MS_DOS_disk
and a new article
http://www.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php/What_is_a_SYSLINUX_disk_%3F
My proposal is to place a link to the new article at all wiki
occasions, where the reader might wonder what exactly is meant
with "disk".
See my link "disk" in the modified paragraph of
SYSLINUX#Creating_a_Bootable_Disk .
Proofreading and criticsim are welcome.
The new article could still need enhancement:
- A description how to populate a disk image file on MS-Windows.
(The section about mkdiskimage could need MS-Windows examples, too.)
- Mentioning that PC-BIOS is not the only firmware.
I lack of knowledge about EFI on hard disk. Watching this mailing
list gives me the impression that this is an open construction site.
Correct me if i am wrong.
Have a nice day :)
Thomas
