Bootloader for Linux/i386 using MS-DOS floppies
SYSLINUX is a boot loader for the Linux/i386 operating
system which operates off an MS-DOS/Windows FAT
filesystem. It is intended to simplify first-time
installation of Linux, and for creation of rescue and other
special-purpose boot disks.
It can also be used as a PXE bootloader during network boots.
SYSLINUX is probably not suitable as a general purpose boot
loader. However, SYSLINUX has shown itself to be quite
useful in a number of special-purpose applications.
