FWIW, the most current (or "up-to-date") documentation about chain.c32 
at this time is located at:
 http://www.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php/Chain.c32 

Note that, in the official wiki of The Syslinux Project, the wiki pages 
containing "... /Doc/ ..." are mainly copies of documents already 
included in some official release, which are usually outdated.


As per the intended setup, it is not possible. There are several 
reasons for such impossibility.

*Independently of this particular case*, if someone wants to improve 
chain.c32 (or any other part of Syslinux), patches are welcome.

Regards,
Ady.
