Hi

He  means 3.60-pre2 (latest syslinux in debian unstable)

Debian-live is a offical debian projekt for building 
live-cd/usb/net-boot images.

I just made some tests with 6 builds with different settings in the
syslinux.cfg file in case something was wrong in the generated one.
And I also can't get the timer to countdown. This was using both
menu.c32 and vesamenu.c32.
It just says 0 s but the countdown works just as Jesse said.

I also tried the MENU AUTOBOOT message to see if that could help, but
replacing it didnt help.
