[syslinux] syslinux on Windows to USB compactflash disk

[Alex Pavloff]

Hi folks,

I'm trying to make a CompactFlash bootable with SYSLINUX.   The hard part is
that I'm trying to run SYSLINUX on Windows 2000 and am attempting to write
to the compactflash that's plugged in via a USB reader/writer.  Its not
working -- Windows complains about the 16-bit subsystem wanting direct
access to the drive.

So then is the problem SYSLINUX fighting with Windows or could it be the USB
drive no allowing direct writes?

Any thoughts appreciated.
