utilities for the syslinux bootloaders

SYSLINUX is a suite of lightweight bootloaders, currently supporting DOS FAT filesystems (SYSLINUX), Linux ext2/ext3 filesystems (EXTLINUX), PXE network booting (PXELINUX), or bootable "El Torito" ISO 9660 CD-ROMs (ISOLINUX). It also includes a tool, MEMDISK, which loads legacy operating systems (such as DOS) from these media.
