[syslinux] Newbie question: need assistance setting up a boot menu for linux dist + win98

[Alon Solell]

Hi,

I want to Boot up from a USB Disk-On-Key, Pull up a menu of:


Start Fresh install of   WBEL 3.0
Start Fresh install of   WBEL 4.0
Start Fresh install of   CentOS 3.6
Start Fresh install of   CentOS 4.2
Load Win98 boot disk and end with command prompt.



My problem is that I'm a novice user (sounds nicer than a newbie :)) ) and 
my experience with Linux was
vanilla installs with no actuall modifications for the install process.

I believe the process itself is fairly simple, as it only requires setting 
up a boot menu and then run the
boot images of the distribution selected.
When I start the linux install, I choose "linux askmethod" and then being 
prompted for the install method FTP, HTTP, CD or NFS Image.
I have no need for an auto install beyond that part.
All I need is to reach this screen, and I'll populate the values manually.
I just need a simple menu at the onset of the boot that will ask me:  "Which 
flavour of linux do you want to install" and thereafter
the selected distribution will initiate the install process of the selected 
distribution.

That's all I need to have,. and I'm stuck here!
This is just a simple boot menu configuration.. (I think),. isn't it, and 
upon selection,. it just pull the install boot image of the
distribution selected.


VERY IMPORTANT:  This must be from a USB Disk On Key (I've booted from it before so 
there is no hardware problems - all brand new hardware and it supports the boot from USB DiskOnKey)

Any pointers on this?
