[syslinux] Re: SYSLINUX 3.08-pre1: fix performance regression

[Paolo Salvan]

Hi,

Just tested.... but the boot continue to be really slow :o(

Say me which info I can send you to help you debug the problem... the 
BIOS is an AMI

It could probably help if in the "3.08preXXX" serie you wirte on the 
screen some debug output, like blocks size

bye!

Paolo
