870 backward compatibility, otherwise the isolinux/syslinux
871 code would become worse than it's already nowadays.

873 correct grml.png is used.

881 question of mtools by syslinux.

929 * Use "set gfxpayload=1024x768x16,1024x768" instead of vga=791 in
930 grub2 configuration. This requires a recent version of the linux
931 loader as the new linux loader loads the kernel at 32bit entry point
932 and not at 16 bit anymore so it has to be translated for the Linux
933 kernel (as the kernel parses vga= in 16 bit code). In the long run
