[syslinux] NTLDR Under ISOLINUX

[Mr Roboto]

Is there a practical reason that the NTLDR clause of the CHAIN
module isn't operable under ISOLINUX ?  The reason for my question 
is that I like the SYSLINUX suite over the alternatives, that is 
GRUB and BCDW, however these pkgs all can chainload (just about 
anything) from an ISO.  That is, they can handle .BSS files and 
the various NT/XP boot files, like SETUPLDR.BIN, etc.

I make/update quite a few special purpose boot discs during the course 
of a month and it would be a big help to have a single tool (SYSLINUX) 
for every project.  It's my hope that the design issue(s) in question 
isn't/arent' a major obstacle to this suggestion.  I know I posted (a 
couple of months ago) a similar question about .BSS files, but neglected 
to follow up on Peter's reply.  I imagine there are at least a few 
others who don't participate on the list, but would appreciate these 
changes.

Anyway, from my perspective, the most recent releases (3.7x) have been 
great and trouble-free, so whenever the next release is planned, one 
hopes this proposal will be considered for inclusion.  Won't be much 
help anymore on the coding-side, but I *can* test the stuff that I've 
mentioned.

Later and keep up the good work....Jet
