* PXELINUX: Fix timer bug when PXELINUX might be unloaded (Gene Cumm).
* core/writedec.inc: Fix duplicate declaration and overflow (Gene Cumm).
* GCC 4.5 fixes.
* sample directory: Fix Makefile include (Gene Cumm).
* ver.com: New universal DOS/COMBOOT application to display version information (includes DRMK) (Gene Cumm).
* rosh.c32: updated; Using getopt() for internal commands to aid parsing options; Fix bugs in ls; add warm reboot and echo (Gene Cumm).
* com32: fix a file descriptor leak.
* gfxboot.c32: handle TEXT..ENDTEXT; error out on no LABELs found (Sebastian Herbszt).

* SYSLINUX: core/diskstart.inc: Reset DS after checksum in case it isn\'t 0 (Gene Cumm).
* win64: Script update for additional mingw compiler names (Gene Cumm).
* diag: New directory for diagnostic-related tools. Add a handoff MBR/VBR and geometry display images (Gene Cumm).
* MEMDISK: use \"mem=\" parameter to mark available memory above this point as reserved (core already does alignment) (Gene Cumm).
* MEMDISK: Additional disk probe checks and debug output (Shao Miller, Gene Cumm).
* gpxe: add gpxelinuxk.0, based off of undionly.kpxe + new script (Gene Cumm).
* isohybrid: install the isohdpfx
*.bin/isohdppx
*.bin files to make isohybrid images in one step with GNU xorriso.
* PXELINUX: disable a hack that would make localboot work on some machines, but break just about as many. Some machines which worked with \"localboot 0\" in previous versions may need \"localboot -1\" in this one. If you have a machine which requires \"localboot -1\", a copy of the dmidecode or sysdump output would be appreciated.
* Include a set of diagnostics by Gene Cumm.
* Fixes for gcc 4.6 and binutils 2.21.51.
* chain.c32: Allow \"uuid\" as a synonym to \"guid\".
* Handle directory names starting with .. for vfat and iso9660.
* New MENU HIDDENKEY command to provide a one-keystroke way to activate a boot option from a hidden menu intro screen.
* Mon Apr 18 2011 snwintAATTsuse.de- update to version 4.03
* Major code base changes; all filesystem rewritten in C. This work was done primarily by Liu Aleaxander (Yuanhan Liu).
* Better support for booting from MBRs which don\'t pass handover information.
* EXTLINUX: Try to be smarter about finding the partition offset.
* chain.c32: support chainloading Dell Real Mode Kernel (Gene Cumm).
* chain.c32: fix booting in CHS mode.
* Fix the -s option to the syslinux/extlinux installer (Arwin Vosselman).
* isohybrid: fix padding of large images (PJ Pandit).
* SYSLINUX: correctly handle the case where the -d option is specified with a non-absolute path, i.e. \"syslinux -d syslinux\" instead of \"syslinux -d /syslinux\".
* ISOLINUX: recognize the directory names /boot/syslinux and /syslinux, and the filename syslinux.cfg in addition to the isolinux-specific names. Thus, \"syslinux.cfg\" is now a generic name, whereas \"isolinux.cfg\" or \"extlinux.conf\" is specific to different derivative.
* chain.c32: support setting alternate config filename for stage2 of GRUB Legacy (Gert Hulselmans).
* whichsys.c32: execute specific command, based on Syslinux bootloader variant (Gert Hulselmans).
* lua.c32: a lot of new bindings added to the \"syslinux\" namespace: VESA, PCI, DMI, kernel loading (Marcel Ritter).
* btrfs: print a comprehensive error message if compressed or encrypted files are encountered (neither is currently supported.)
* SYSLINUX: mtools installer: honor TMPDIR, error out on disk full.
* Handle fallbacks from EDD to CHS, to deal with systems which announce EDD support but don\'t actually have it.
* SYSLINUX: the mtools, DOS and win32 installers now use the new command line options.
* PXELINUX: fix the use of IP addresses in TFTP :: or tftp:// host syntax.
* SYSLINUX: experimental Win64 installer (syslinux64.exe).
* ISOLINUX: fix initialization on systems which don\'t zero low memory.
* SYSLINUX/EXTLINUX: fix handing of disk read retries in EDD mode.
* ISOLINUX: change the initialization sequence to avoid problems with certain (old) BIOSes. Special thanks to Helmut Hullen for invaluable debugging support.
* ifplop.c32: new module which detects if the PLoP Boot Loader already has booted a CDROM or USB drive (Gert Hulselmans).
* Correct a severe memory overwrite bug, triggered primarily when selecting a very long command line in the menu system.
* lua.c32: Lua script interpreter, currently experimental (Alexey Zaytsev, Marcel Ritter, Geert Stappers).
* PXELINUX: new option IPAPPEND 4 to append the system UUID to the kernel command line.
* PXELINUX: display BOOTIF and SYSUUID at startup time, and when Ctrl-N is pressed on the command line.
* EXTLINUX: btrfs and ext4 support. btrfs support was done by Alek Du of Intel.
* EXTLINUX is no longer a separate derivative; extlinux and syslinux both install the same loader (ldlinux.sys); for the Linux-based installers the extlinux binary is used for a mounted filesystem; the syslinux binary for an unmounted filesystem.
* When loading a new configuration file with the CONFIG command, one can now also specify a new current directory with an APPEND statement.
* Full ADV support for Syslinux, to boot-once and MENU SAVE works.
* Full support of GPT-partitioned disks, including disks and/or parititions larger than 2 TiB (if supported by BIOS.)
* The GPT handover protocol adjusted to the current T13 committee draft; see doc/gpt.txt.
* HDT: code cleanup, small bugfixes
* The \"linux\" syslinux installer (syslinux-nomtools) now has a command-line syntax closer to the extlinux installer. The mtools, dos and win32 installers will get this new syntax eventually, but it is not implemented yet.
* chain.c32: support booting GPT partitions by index, GUID, label.
* chain.c32: support booting the Syslinux partition with \"fs\".
* chain.c32: implement gpt.txt hand-over protocol.
* chain.c32: support for chainloading Grub stage 2.
* PXELINUX: TFTP URL syntax (tftp://) supported even when not running gPXE/gpxelinux.
* New ls.c32 module to display the contents of the disk from the command line, and pwd.c32 to display the current directory.
* rosh.c32 (read only shell) updated and hopefully usable.
* PXELINUX: Support \"localboot -1\", just like the other derivatives.
* gfxboot.com removed in favor of gfxboot.c32.
* New MENU HELP statement to display fullscreen help text as a result of a menu selection.
* memdiskfind utility that can be used with the phram driver in the Linux kernel to mount a memdisk.
* ifcpu.c32: Adding usage when no parameters are given, adding PAE support.
* ifcpu.c32, ifcpu64.c32: handle more than one argument per target.
* isohybrid: C version which does not require Perl.
* New command MENU IMMEDIATE to permit hotkeys to activate immediately without needing Enter.
* mdiskchk.com supports a --no-sequential (or -n) option to suppress the classic all-drive-probing heuristic. Useful on BIOSes who crash/hang when certain drive numbers are probed.
* ElTorito.Sys DOS driver now scans drive numbers upwards instead of downwards, in order to avoid a fairly common bug on some BIOSes where probing drive 0xFF causes a failure.
* Tue Apr 27 2010 snwintAATTsuse.de- drop obsolete gfxboot.com
* Mon Apr 19 2010 snwintAATTsuse.de- fix menu label handling
* Fri Apr 16 2010 snwintAATTsuse.de- gfxboot.c32:

* Thu Apr 08 2010 snwintAATTsuse.de- update to version 3.86
* chain.c32: fix chainloading the MBR of a hard disk (broken in 3.85).
* mboot.c32: report the boot loader name in the information structure.
* com32: set argv[0] in a com32 module.
* core: add a workaround for a bug in Xen HVM older than version 3.3: disable halt on those platforms.
* Fix problems where certain operations in com32 modules would cause the core to believe the system was idle.
* MEMDISK: fix MBR detection when used with a DOSEMU header or an offset.
* MEMDISK: generate the mBFT checksum correctly.
* gPXELINUX: updated to gPXE 1.0.0. gPXELINUX can now do NBP chainloading, and does not require a second DHCP.
* vesamenu.c32: unbreak the default \"grey hole\" background.
* We no longer have a built-in default of \"linux auto\". Instead, if no DEFAULT or UI statement is found, or the configuration file is missing entirely, we drop to the boot: prompt with an error message (if NOESCAPE is set, we stop with a \"boot failed\" message; this is also the case for PXELINUX if the configuration file is not found.)
* chain.c32: support chainloading Grub4DOS; patch by Gert Hulselmans.
* New tool: sysdump.c32, can be used to produce system information for debugging via tftp or ymodem (serial port).
* \"vga=current\" on the Linux command line is now supported.
* chain.c32: support for Windows Recovery Console, via the \"cmldr=\" option.
* chain.c32: should now support loading NTLDR from different type media than loaded from.
* chain.c32: support chainloading to a FAT/NTFS partition with invalid \"hidden sectors\" via the \"sethidden\" option.

* mkdiskimage: -s option for producing a sparse image.
* vesamenu.c32: support arbitrary resolution setting (beyond BIOS support) on some Intel-based video chipsets. This code is a modified version of the \"915resolution\" tool by Steve Tomljenovic; your mileage might vary.
* SYSLINUX: make the DOS installer work for MS-DOS 7.x/8.x (Win9x/ME) again.
* HDT: updated to version 0.3.6 (numerous changes.)
* mboot.c32: now supports video mode setting if requested by the image.
* MEMDISK: Fix floppy images of PC-DOS.
* MEMDISK: Add support for emulation of CD-ROM images; patch by Shao Miller.
* MEMDISK: Comply with the Win9x \"safe hook\" standard, allowing a protected-mode driver.
* MEMDISK: New \"mBFT\" ACPI table, by analogy with the iSCSI iBFT table. This allows detection from a protected-mode operating system without EDD support.
* 32-bit version of the gfxboot loader (gfxboot.c32), so far experimental. This will replace gfxboot.com in the future.
* vesamenu.c32: new MENU RESOLUTION directive to set a screen resolution other than 640x480.
* chain.c32: add support for loading isolinux.bin.
* chain.c32: make sure to always return to text mode.

* Thu Oct 15 2009 snwintAATTsuse.de- update to version 3.83
* PXELINUX: clear memory before handing over to a chainloaded NBP. This may help avoid a bug in Windows RIS.
* PXELINUX: fix localboot after NBP chainloading on certain BIOSes (including ASUS A8N-E, but possibly others.)
* chain.c32: support chainloaded bootloaders on ISOLINUX.
* PXELINUX: allow filenames up to 251 characters.
* MEMDISK: fix problems booting from USB on Thinkpads, and possibly other machines or hardware combinations.
* HDT: updated to version 0.3.4.
* MEMDISK: the stack size is now configurable, with the stack= option.
* Simple menu: fix Ctrl-W (word erase) in command-line edit.
* Simple menu: fix crash on some platforms.
* PXELINUX: add a tool to override specific DHCP options via values hardcoded in the pxelinux.0 file. These hardcoded values can be either \"before DHCP\" (defaults if DHCP do not provide values), or \"after DHCP\" (overrides DHCP). The tool pxelinux-options can be used to set these options. This feature does not apply to gpxelinux.0; when used with gPXE this is better handled by modifying the embedded script.
* Mon Oct 05 2009 snwintAATTsuse.de- if first memory area is too small, use largest (bnc #469889, bnc #507952)
* Tue Aug 25 2009 snwintAATTsuse.de- fix argv setup (bnc #530255)- now accepts two args: bootlogo and a (text)message file

* Tue Aug 04 2009 snwintAATTsuse.de- fix isohybrid -id
* Wed Jun 10 2009 snwintAATTsuse.de- update to version 3.82
* Lots of bug fixes.
* Simple menu: make ONTIMEOUT work with MENU HIDDEN.
* PXELINUX: handle TFTP servers which have extra NULs at the end of an OACK packet.
* Attempt to halt the processor while idle. This can cause bad reponsiveness when using a serial console especially for automated input; if that ends up being a problem, use the new \"NOHALT 1\" configuration command.
* isohybrid: fix the -partok logic for loading from a partition.
* isohybrid: add a variety of options, and a help message.
* isohybrid: fix problem with images over 2 GB in size.
* ISOLINUX: fix booting in hybrid mode when CBIOS is used. This unfortunately means that the isohybrid handoff protocol has changed, so the isohybrid utility must version-match isolinux.bin.
* Don\'t hang trying to boot a \"menu quit\" label from the CLI.
* Fix problem with boot-once \"sticking\" on some BIOSes.
* Wed Apr 22 2009 snwintAATTsuse.de- gfxboot: usage has changed; see README.gfxboot for details- update to version 3.75
* Lots of bug fixes.
* New UI directive, which allows a more natural way to specify a menu system (or not.) With the UI directive specifying the menu system, the DEFAULT directive can be used to select the default entry inside the menus.
* kbdmap.c32: new module to load a new keyboard map dynamically.
* Suppress the Loading ... message if \"quiet\" is specified on the kernel command line.
* MBR: produce alternate MBR variants which force the drive number to hd0 (_f variants), or force the drive number to hd0 if the Ctrl key is pressed (_c variants.) Furthermore, add an MBR variant (altmbr
*.bin) which ignores the active flag and instead boots the partition number specified in the byte at offset 439 decimal.
* Add IPAPPEND strings to com32 modules, especially needed for linux.c32.
* New MENU SAVE directive which saves the latest menu selection until the next boot. Currently only implemented for EXTLINUX.
* gfxboot.com:
*experimental
* interface module to Steffen Winterfeldt\'s \"gfxboot\" graphical front end (http://gfxboot.sourceforge.net/). Module by Sebastian Herbszt.
* config.c32: trivial COM32 module to restart Syslinux with another configuration file from the command line (equivalent to the CONFIG command in the configuratin file.)
* Include the pxechain.com module from Jeffery Hutzelman at Carnegie Mellon University. This allows chaining another PXE boot program while changing the DHCP packet passed to it.
* ISOLINUX: support generating images which can be either a CD-ROM or a hard disk (USB disk, etc.) See doc/isolinux.txt for more information.
* Tab display of labels, based on a patch from Sebastian Herbszt. Can be disabled with the NOCOMPLETE configuration command.
* Optionally allow initrd to be specified on a separate line rather than as part of the \"append\" line. This is not recommended, but apparently makes life easier for some tools.
* chain.c32: lots of new options added
* ifcpu64.c32: simple COM32 module to select a 32- or 64-bit kernel (and optionally 32-bit kernels with or without PAE.) Eventually we want a scripting language for this kind of stuff; a Lua module is under development.
* PXELINUX: Support enhanced capabilities when running on top of gPXE (http://www.etherboot.org/). In particular, support URL-style syntax for filenames, and any protocol that gPXE supports (except, currently, iSCSI and AoE.) This feature is currently highly experimental.
* SYSLINUX: VFAT long filename support.
* Add an experimental MBR for GPT partition tables.
* Tue Nov 04 2008 snwintAATTsuse.de- gfxboot: increase usable mem size to 8MB

* Mon Apr 28 2008 snwintAATTsuse.de- give more memory to gfxboot code
* Mon Apr 14 2008 snwintAATTsuse.de- update to version 3.63
* Lots of bug fixes.
* Handle command lines up to 2047 characters, the current Linux kernel limit.
* Support MD5, SHA256 and SHA512 encrypted passwords.
* MEMDISK: Turn on EDD support by default.
* Add a new INCLUDE command to the core syslinux parser.
* It is now supported to load a different configuration file with the CONFIG keyword.
* MENU AUTOBOOT, MENU TABMSG, MENU PASSPROMPT allows internationalization of menu messages.
* New hierarchial submenu support: see MENU BEGIN, MENU END, MENU GOTO in doc/menu.txt.
* MENU QUIT allows creating a menu entry for returning to the command line.
* Simple menu system: new \"MENU HIDDEN\" option to not display the menu unless the user presses a key.
* Add \"menu separator\", \"menu indent\", \"menu disabled\" (see README.menu).
* SYSLINUX: Support subdirectories.
* PXELINUX: Press Ctrl-N at the boot prompt to read out the network info.
* PXELINUX: as per RFC 5071, PXELINUX no longer requires the use of the magic cookie option (208) for unencapsulated options. Currently it does not require it for vendor-encapsulated options (vendor-option-space) either, but that MAY be reverted in the future if it causes problems.
* EXTLINUX: boot-once support (--once, --clear-once, and --reset-adv)
* Support for \"auxilliary data vector\", a small amount of writable storage. Currently only supported for EXTLINUX, but the infrastructure is there for the other derivatives, assuming a suitable storage location can be found.

* The MENU COLOR statement can now control the shadowing mode.
* libcom32 extended to support graphics mode and graphical console.
* vesamenu.c32, new graphical version of the Simple Menu System, see README.menu.
* New com32 modules by Erwan Velu do selection based on CPUID or PCI devices present.
* EXTLINUX: New options --install (-i) and --update (-U), to make it clear if a boot loader should be installed or updated. For now, defaults to --install for compatibility; a future version will require one of these options.
* New library functions to load and place files in memory.
* mboot.c32 bug fixes.
* Remove 8 MB kernel size restriction.
* PXELINUX: Fail (and eventually reboot) if no configuration file was found.
