[<no...@fr...>]

This email is to inform you about the release of version '2.08' of
'Syslinux' through freshmeat.net. All URLs and other useful information
can be found at

    http://freshmeat.net/projects/syslinux/

The changes in this release are as follows:
This is mostly a collection of some minor feature enhancements, with
some bugfixes thrown in. Perhaps the most important is a largely
untested module to chainboot arbitrary local drives/partitions. 

Project 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.
