SYSLINUX 1.70 doesn't introduce any new features, but contains a major
rewrite of some of the internals.  It also includes some bug fixes.

SYSLINUX 1.72 and 1.71 are critical bug fixes to 1.70.

Changes in 1.72:
        * PXELINUX, ISOLINUX: Fix bugs in the new core code.

Changes in 1.71:
        * Fix a "brown paper bag" class bug in the new core code.

Changes in 1.70:
	* Major code restructuring.
	* Relax the conventional memory limits somewhat.
	* MEMDISK: Set up the "version number string" pointer in the
	  header correctly.
        * SYSLINUX: Fix, again, "the bug that won't die": the use of
          the offset parameter with the SYSLINUX installer.
	* SYSLINUX: Fix possible superblock corruption problem in the
	  SYSLINUX installer.

Title:		syslinux
Version:	1.72
Entered-date:	2002-04-23
Description:	SYSLINUX is a boot loader for the Linux operating system
		which operates off MS-DOS floppies.  It is intended to
		simplify first-time installation of Linux, rescue
		disks, and other uses for boot floppies.  A SYSLINUX floppy
		can be manipulated using standard MS-DOS (or any other
		OS that can access an MS-DOS filesystem) tools once
		it has been created; and requires only a ~ 8K DOS program
		or ~ 16K Linux program to create in the first place.
		Starting with version 1.46 it also includes PXELINUX, a
		program to boot off a network server using a boot PROM
		compatible with the Intel PXE (Pre-Execution
		Environment) specification.
		Starting with version 1.60 it also includes ISOLINUX,
		a program to boot off an ISO 9660 in native
		"no-emulation" mode.
		Starting with version 1.65, it additionally includes
		MEMDISK, a tool to boot legacy operating systems from
		nontraditional media like PXE or CD-ROM.
