As a complete newbie, I needed to use syslinux to do what it does. I duly went and downloaded syslinux_6.01.zip from https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/boot/syslinux/

Unzipped in Xp and tried the syslinux -xa drive letter: to get usb to work, it did not.
After investigating the win32 folder there is no syslinux?

Versions 5.01 and below have it , why has it been removed? All the online helps start with this criteria !

No mention anywhere why its been removed, can only assume its been missed big style.
