Hi all,

I have released SYSLINUX 2.00-pre8, which a syslinux installer which I'm
*hoping* should be safe to run setuid root (and therefore will be able
to run on any device or file that the user has read/write permission to.)

If anyone is willing to do a security audit of this code, I would really
appreciate it; I have really tried to make sure the code asserts root
privilege as little as at all possible.
