We're doing the development of an WinCE image for an x86-compatible
machine. It does boot with the Microsoft boot loader but we'd like to
use syslinux for it.

Chainload is not the better alternative for our case but we do need to
load it and boot.

Is there any documentation or reference about a non-Linux loader I can
use while writting the loader for it?
