Changes in 1.48: * PXELINUX: Workaround for PXE ROMs based on the Intel PXE PDK 3.0 build 071 and earlier: missing !PXE structure pointer. * PXELINUX: Handle larger BOOTP/DHCP packages. * PXELINUX: The command line passing was broken; fix. * PXELINUX: Make COMBOOT images work. * PXELINUX: Documentation on how to make booting work using the PDK 3.0-derived clients, which aren't so generous as to allow booting with only "PXEClient" specified. Begin3 Title: syslinux Version: 1.48 Entered-date: 26SEP99 Description: SYSLINUX is a boot loader for the Linux operating system which operates off MS-DOS floppies. It is intended to simplify first-time installation of Linux, rescue disks, and other uses for boot floppies. A SYSLINUX floppy can be manipulated using standard MS-DOS (or any other OS that can access an MS-DOS filesystem) tools once it has been created; and requires only a ~ 7K DOS program or ~ 13K Linux program to create in the first place. Starting with version 1.46 it also includes PXELINUX, a program to boot off a network server using a boot PROM compatible with the Intel PXE (Pre-Execution Environment) specification.
