2.06 is a bug fix release. Changes in 2.06: * ALL: Fix problem that would occationally cause a boot failure, depending on the length of the kernel. * ISOLINUX: Fix problem that would occationally cause a boot failure, depending on the length of directories. * SYSLINUX: Win32 installer now flushes buffers. * ppmtolss16: Be fully compliant with the PPM spec; actually process comments in the header and odd alignments of the various parameters, as well as "plain" (not raw) files and PBM and PGM files. * PXELINUX: Lower the default MTU to 1472 in order to deal with systems with slightly nonstandard MTUs, and PXE stacks which don't defragment correctly. Unfortunately this is very hard to test dynamically. Begin3 Title: syslinux Version: 2.06 Entered-date: 2003-08-22 Description: SYSLINUX is a collection of boot loaders for the Linux operating system which operates off MS-DOS floppies, network servers using PXE firmware, or from CD-ROMs. 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 very small DOS or Linux program to create in the first place. It also includes MEMDISK, a tool to boot legacy operating systems from nontraditional media like PXE or CD-ROM.
