Package: syslinux Version: 2:4.00+dfsg-1 Severity: minor Hi again,
I'd like to see support for other boot options than linux kernels in local /boot in extlinux-upgrade. It seems to me that currently support for at least memtets86+ can be added by means of a specific syslinux-theme, but I think in the long term a more generic support is required - think of grub2's /etc/grub.d mechanism. Automatic detection and addition of images like memtest86, grub- invaders or maybe even chainloadable boot loaders of foreign OSes (via os- prober) would be highly appreciated.
