The traditional way was for having kernel + initrd on the partition that 
contains Syslinux, and then the script and kernel filesystem modules 
would make sure to find the rest of the data on that different 2nd 
filesystem.

As Syslinux only understands a single partition at a time, and only a 
single filesystem at a time, perhaps only Chain.c32 module would help 
you out to boot a 2nd partition and whatever operating system present on it.
