677 * Update documentation regarding syslinux and FAT32 (thanks to
678 Stefan Traby <stefan@hello-penguin.com> for the hint).
679 * Changes with regards to Ulrich's work:
680 - Add a check to identify old ISOs which do not ship
681 a default.cfg file and abort then. We have to break
682 backward compatibility, otherwise the isolinux/syslinux
683 code would become worse than it's already nowadays.
684 - Search for isolinux files in /boot/isolinux/ so the
685 correct grml.png is used.
686 - Support setting bootoptions in syslinux.cfg
687 * Drop duplicated boot=live references in kernel cmdline.
688 * Apply patch from Thorsten Glaser which prepares code for
690 * Raise CriticalException if filesystem.module, kernel or
691 initrd are not present.
692 * Avoid the "file is read only, overwrite anyway (y/n) ?"
693 question of mtools by syslinux.
694 * Inform user when using grub as bootloader.
695 * Make syslinux the default bootloader (drop --syslinux,
696 add --grub instead). Grub fails just too often.

718 Thanks for the patch to Alexander 'Leo' Bergolth <leo@strike.wu.ac.at>!
719 * Make sure grub.conf isn't a symlink but a plain file instead,
720 otherwise it will break on FAT16 filesystems. This works around
721 grub-install of (at least) Fedora 10.

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