SYSLINUX is a collection of boot loaders for the Linux operating system which operates on Linux EXT2/EXT3 filesystems, MS-DOS FAT filesystems, network servers using PXE firmware, or from CD-ROMs. SYSLINUX has an advanced extension API and contains two optional menu systems. It also includes MEMDISK, a tool for booting legacy operating
systems from non-traditional media like PXE or CD-ROM.

Changes:
The primary new feature of this release is support
for hierarchical submenus in the simple menu
system. In addition to that, this release
eliminates a lot of hardcoded limitations, such as
the maximum number of labels, which are now only
limited by memory, and the length of the command
line. Furthermore, this release fixes the
graphical display on systems which do not support
the linear framebuffer option in the VESA BIOS.
