[syslinux] Disabling MEMDISK

does this imply there will be a utility that allows you to return to ISOLINUX?

syslinux -> menu -> option -> memdisk -> disk image -> DOS -> do_stuff -> exitmdsk -> isolinux

I guess HPA's program/patch instead causes a "load loader in RAM, destroy memdisk, execute payload". (in your case: etherboot)

so for PreOS this means:
boothd.com -> "destroy memdisk + localboot 0x80",
just like 3Com's pboot.exe ??

nice trick :)

@echo off
rem if boot.ini does exist, then destroy MEMDISK and boot harddisk.
rem checking existence could be done using a c32 module,
rem but running Ghost does require DOS and thus MEMDISK.
if exist c:\boot.ini boothd.com
ghost /options \\server\\share\\image.gho
reboot.com
