  Hi,

I'm Florent BERANGER, from Flonix ( http://www.flonix.com ).

After several tests, we have found that Syslinux 3.00 pre9 is no longer
compatible with USB stick booting.
Syslinux 2.13 works fine with this feature.

Error infos :
Syslinux 3.00 pre9 only displays its version and a new line with a "a"
character and then hangs.

Tests configuration :
Syslinux applied from : Linux (without options, with -s & -sf) & Windows XP
Motherboard : MSI K7TPro2 (Award BIOS)
Boot option : USB-ZIP

  Best regards,
    Florent
