The "another bootloader" is clear to me.
But what are the prescriptions for preparing a SYSLINUX EFI System
Partition that boots out of a CD ?
(Those built according to
http://www.syslinux.org/wiki/index.php?title=Install#UEFI
are known not to be able to do this.)
Do you know examples (ready ISOs or production software for ISOs)
which use SYSLINUX for EFI together with ISOLINUX and do not
have to contain a full-fledged operating system in the ESP ?
Have a nice day :)
