711 * Update documentation regarding syslinux and FAT32 (thanks to

713 * Changes with regards to Ulrich's work:
714 - Add a check to identify old ISOs which do not ship
715 a default.cfg file and abort then. We have to break
716 backward compatibility, otherwise the isolinux/syslinux
717 code would become worse than it's already nowadays.
718 - Search for isolinux files in /boot/isolinux/ so the
719 correct grml.png is used.
720 - Support setting bootoptions in syslinux.cfg
721 * Drop duplicated boot=live references in kernel cmdline.
722 * Apply patch from Thorsten Glaser which prepares code for
724 * Raise CriticalException if filesystem.module, kernel or
725 initrd are not present.
726 * Avoid the "file is read only, overwrite anyway (y/n) ?"
727 question of mtools by syslinux.
728 * Inform user when using grub as bootloader.
729 * Make syslinux the default bootloader (drop --syslinux,
730 add --grub instead). Grub fails just too often.

754 otherwise it will break on FAT16 filesystems. This works around

772 older 'terminal'-command (thanks to Felix Zielcke for helping).

775 * Use "set gfxpayload=1024x768x16,1024x768" instead of vga=791 in
776 grub2 configuration. This requires a recent version of the linux
777 loader as the new linux loader loads the kernel at 32bit entry point
778 and not at 16 bit anymore so it has to be translated for the Linux
779 kernel (as the kernel parses vga= in 16 bit code). In the long run
780 we don't seem to have another option, so let's change it.
