[syslinux] using menu.c32 from ISOLINUX to display two menu....

[K Schincke]

option "a" was the problem. My CD creation script was written by the 
other admin in my group and was using the isolinux.bin from RHEL3.

I updated the script to use the isolinux.bin from 3.20 to match the 
menu.c32 and things work as they should.

Thanks for the quick feedback.

Now I can work on tightening my config file.

Thanks,

Keith
