863 a default.cfg file and abort then. We have to break
864 backward compatibility, otherwise the isolinux/syslinux
865 code would become worse than it's already nowadays.
866 - Search for isolinux files in /boot/isolinux/ so the
867 correct grml.png is used.
868 - Support setting bootoptions in syslinux.cfg
869 * Drop duplicated boot=live references in kernel cmdline.

873 initrd are not present.
874 * Avoid the "file is read only, overwrite anyway (y/n) ?"
875 question of mtools by syslinux.

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