774 * Changes with regards to Ulrich's work:
775 - Add a check to identify old ISOs which do not ship
776 a default.cfg file and abort then. We have to break
777 backward compatibility, otherwise the isolinux/syslinux
778 code would become worse than it's already nowadays.
779 - Search for isolinux files in /boot/isolinux/ so the
780 correct grml.png is used.
781 - Support setting bootoptions in syslinux.cfg
782 * Drop duplicated boot=live references in kernel cmdline.
783 * Apply patch from Thorsten Glaser which prepares code for
785 * Raise CriticalException if filesystem.module, kernel or
786 initrd are not present.
787 * Avoid the "file is read only, overwrite anyway (y/n) ?"
788 question of mtools by syslinux.
789 * Inform user when using grub as bootloader.
790 * Make syslinux the default bootloader (drop --syslinux,
791 add --grub instead). Grub fails just too often.

815 otherwise it will break on FAT16 filesystems. This works around
816 grub-install of (at least) Fedora 10.

833 older 'terminal'-command (thanks to Felix Zielcke for helping).
834 * Document the 'grub-setup fails after Attempting to install GRUB
835 to a partition instead of the MBR' issue.
836 * Use "set gfxpayload=1024x768x16,1024x768" instead of vga=791 in
837 grub2 configuration. This requires a recent version of the linux
838 loader as the new linux loader loads the kernel at 32bit entry point
839 and not at 16 bit anymore so it has to be translated for the Linux
840 kernel (as the kernel parses vga= in 16 bit code). In the long run
841 we don't seem to have another option, so let's change it.
842 Thanks to Felix Zielcke and Robert Millan for first hand information.
843 * Increase timeout from 5 to 10 seconds in grub2 configuration.
844 * Load memtest86+ binary via 'linux16' in grub2 (otherwise it fails).
845 * Drop the serial boot entry from grub2 (I assume users with usb
846 pens don't need that option).
