Please carbon-copy Torgeir for future discussion in this particular thread.
I have updated the branch mentioned above to include a new '--fallback'
feature for the '--config' option, as well as a new '--label' option.
Unfortunately, the '--fallback' option cannot be used with the '--label'
option at this time because trying to call a label, whether it exists or
not, does not return to the caller; it terminates the COMBOOT32 module
before attempting to jump to the label. Thus the fall-back will be
whatever Syslinux has been given with the most recently loaded
config-file's DEFAULT directive. If someone has an idea for a
work-around, I'd be interested. :)
Here is the new usage statement:
Usage: nictype.c32 [--config | --label] [--fallback <command>]
--config will try to load a config-file with the name VVVVDDDD
--label will try to jump to a label with name VVVVDDDD
--fallback specifies a label or command to run if --config fails
VVVV is the VENdor code and DDDD is the DEVice code, for PCI and
CardBus NICs.
