SysLinux

Hello, I found that the "best" bootloader isn't explained, that bootloader is SysLinux (or as most people know it: isolinux).

---This page will be finished in the next few days---

Intro

Syslinux is a bootloader which makes it easy to create good and graphical bootloaders! Url: http://syslinux.zytor.com/wiki/index.php/The_Syslinux_Project

Specs

Just like grub it allows for elf/multiboot kernels!

Usage

First a iso_root dir: | |-isolinux | |-isolinux.cfg | |-isolinux.bin | |-a few modules and your kernel | |-extra files of choise

Now isolinux.cfg. This is the config. Simple example that loads a multiboot elf kernel with initrd: [todo...] A simple menu: [todo...] A graphical menu: [todo...] More info about options on the site (page "modules")

The command to create a cd: [todo...] [i haven't used it on anything else than cd's, someone else will be able to add this info]

See ya!!!
