Syslinux - May 2020 - Menu rotation

Hi,

Is it possible to rotate the syslinux.cfg file that is shown on bootup?  We
are using Clonezilla which uses syslinux and the menu on our instrument
needs to be rotated 90 degrees.

Thank you.

Nope, not possible as far as I know.

Hi,

FrameBuffer has the option "fbcon=rotate:1".

Could a similar functionality be implemented in the video driver (VBE?)
that is used by Syslinux?

Is it legal to copy that code from the FBCon portion into the Syslinux
video driver portion?

If so, where should I start looking?

Thanks for all your help.

SS
