Unfortunately I = can't get Syslinux's mboot.c32 to run the kernel or loader as suggested = at http://www.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php/Mboot.c32 - it reports = "Invalid Multiboot image: neither ELF header nor a.out kludge found". I suspect I would be able to use memdisk as I have used that in the past = with syslinux (for 7.x) however this was seems a lot cleaner and easier = to generate. Has anyone had any success with this?
