[syslinux] Syslinux 6.00 released

[Romain Naour]

Hi,

I have the same problem as Helmut with INCLUDE keyword and extlinux 5.10 an later.
The following configuration has been tested and worked with extlinux 4.05, 4.06, 5.01

Contents of "boot_label" file
DEFAULT 1
---------------------------------------

Contents of "extlinux.conf" file
# Enable menu.c32 
UI menu.c32

# Disable the boot: prompt
PROMPT 0

# 5 sec
TIMEOUT 50

# 60 sec max
TOTALTIMEOUT 600

# Default boot label
INCLUDE boot_label

MENU TITLE Boot Menu

LABEL 1
   MENU LABEL System 1
   LINUX /bzImage_1
   APPEND console=ttyS0,115200

LABEL 2
   MENU LABEL System 2
   LINUX /bzImage_2
   APPEND quiet console=ttyS0,115200 

LABEL pxe
   MENU LABEL BOOT PXE
   LOCALBOOT -1

---------------------------------------

Since extlinux 5.10 I get:
"Initial menu has no LABEL entries!"

Thanks to Helmut report, the problem is fixed with:
INCLUDE "boot_label"

Do you have any idea what could be the problem ?

Regards,
Romain

| 
| And another strange behaviour:
| 
|         include  "colors.txt"
| 
| works (or breaks) in another way than
| 
|         include  colors.txt
| 
| Viele Gruesse!
