After a couple of very late nights I actually have a VERY preliminary 
test of the rewritten SYSLINUX available for preview.

However; don't expect it to do anything miraculous yet; the testing it 
has gotten can best be described as infinitesimal.  In theory, though, 
it should now support EDD and FAT32, as well as FAT filesystems with 
very large clusters (up to 64K).

NOTE: The Win32 installer has not yet been ported, and I haven't 
actually tested the DOS installer (which has been completely rewritten, 
and therefore is almost certainly broken.)

Anyway, if you'd like to peek, test, or help out, please do download:
