NAME

       syslinux2ansi - converts a syslinux-format screen to pc-ansi

SYNOPSIS

       syslinux2ansi < filename.input > filename.output

DESCRIPTION

       Syslinux2ansi  is  a filter which converts a screen formatted for syslinux to one compatible with PC ANSI.  It will only read from standard
       in, and has no command line options.

BUGS

       Help and version command line options would be useful.

       The ability to put input and output filenames on the command line might be good as well.

   Bug reports
       I would appreciate hearing of any problems you have with SYSLINUX.  I would also like to hear from you if you have successfully	used  SYS-
       LINUX, especially if you are using it for a distribution.

       If  you	are reporting problems, please include all possible information about your system and your BIOS; the vast majority of all problems
       reported turn out to be BIOD or hardware bugs, and I need as much information as possible in order to diagnose the problems.

       There is a mailing list for discussion among SYSLINUX users and for announcements of new and test versions.   To join, send  a  message	to
       majordomo@linux.kernel.org with the line:

       subscribe syslinux

       in the body of the message.  The submission address is syslinux@linux.kernel.org.

AUTHOR

       This  manual  page  is  a quick write-up for Debian done by Kevin Kreamer <kkreamer@etherhogz.org>, by looking over the 1 screenful of Perl
       that is syslinux2ansi.

NAME

       extlinux - install the SYSLINUX bootloader on a ext2/ext3 filesystem

SYNOPSIS

       extlinux [options] directory

DESCRIPTION

       EXTLINUX is a new syslinux derivative, which boots from a Linux ext2/ext3 filesystem.  It works the same way as SYSLINUX, with a few slight
       modifications.  It is intended to simplify first-time installation of Linux, and for creation of  rescue  and  other  special-purpose  boot
       disks.

       The  installer is designed to be run on a mounted directory.  For example, if you have an ext2 or ext3 usb key mounted on /mnt, you can run
       the following command:

	      extlinux --install /mnt

OPTIONS

       -H, --heads=#
	      Force the number of heads.

       -i, --install
	      Install over the current bootsector.

       -O, --clear-once
	      Clear the boot-once command.

       -o, --once=command
	      Execute a command once upon boot.

       -r, --raid
	      Fall back to the next device on boot failure.

       --reset-adv
	      Reset auxiliary data.

       -S, --sectors=#
	      Force the number of sectors per track.

       -U, --update
	      Updates a previous EXTLINUX installation.

       -z, --zip
	      Force zipdrive geometry (-H 64 -S 32).
