[syslinux] PXElinux bootscreens

[Kuervers.SJ at forces.gc.ca]

Thanks for your quick response.  How difficult would it be to pull the image
file from the TFTP server instead of from the floppy?  You could then use
your same display code, and all that, after pulling the image from the
server (before pulling the display menu, etc).

Would this be something that could be done by someone else (possibly myself)
for you to implement?

Steve

Well, it's certainly possible in the sense that you can do anything you
want from a COMBOOT/COM32 binary.

I'm working on a libc for COM32, but I don't know how long it will take
to complete.

Graphical front ends are not exactly a high priority for me.
