Hi!

I like the new vesamenu stuff and the "MENU INCLUDE" option - it
simplifies menu
setup considerably!

However, I found some odd behaviour, that looks like a bug to me:

I'm trying to include a "go back to main menu" file:

- ----------------------------------------------------------
LABEL mainmenu
  MENU DEFAULT
  MENU LABEL ^0 Back to Main Menu
  KERNEL vesamenu.c32
- ----------------------------------------------------------

in my basic config file:
- ----------------------------------------------------------
MENU TITLE DOS Boot Floppies
MENU INCLUDE pxelinux.cfg/menu.inc

LABEL dos-3com
  MENU LABEL ^1 DOS 3com Bootfloppy
  KERNEL memdisk
  APPEND initrd=/dos/dos_3com.img floppy

LABEL novell
  MENU LABEL ^2 Novell something
  KERNEL memdisk
  APPEND initrd=/dos/288_ncp.img

MENU INCLUDE pxelinux.cfg/main.inc
- ----------------------------------------------------------

I'd expect a menu like:

1 DOS 3com Bootfloppy
2 Novell something
0 Back to Main Menu

But I get:

1 DOS 3com Bootfloppy
0 Back to Main Menu
2 Novell something

If I move the "MENU INCLUDE" option up and down - it's always the same:
It's one position above then intended one. Am I missing something, or
may this
be a bug in the config file parsing code?

Bye,
   Marcel
