SYSLINUX - common documentation. SYSLINUX is a boot loader for the Linux operating system which runs on 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. When properly configured, SYSLINUX can be used to completely eliminate the need for distribution of raw boot floppy images. GRUB4DOS and WINGRUB Project Homepage.
