[syslinux] Append line size limit in syslinux 3.72

[Dag Wieers]

Hi,

Is there still a known limit of 255 characters of the append line in 
syslinux (isolinux) from the config file ?

A quick test showed me that when the APPEND line in the config-file is 
longer than 255 characters it arrives truncated in Linux.

While typing more than 255 characters on the commandline does not cause 
the same issue and in Linux the kernel commandline exceeds the 255 
character limit without a problem.

This is tested using RHEL4.6 anaconda's 2.4.9 (BOOT) kernel.
