[syslinux] Loading plpbt.bin from Syslinux 4.02 causes reboot

[mwesten]

OK, it's working now.  : )  I did some more searching and found the problem. 
I was using the example as shown,  i.e. trying to load plpbt.bin, and that 
doesn't work because of the .bin extension.  I did run across something that 
said the extension needed to be removed, but didn't know what that meant 
since the filename needs to be complete or it gives a "could not find kernel 
image..." error.  Now I see it's necessary to rename the file to something 
else without that extension at all, and then boot that.

Cheers,
