Syslinux is a bootloader like LILO or GRUB. It's purpose is to boot the |
| 11 |
system, find the linux kernel and launch it. It's a light and |
| 12 |
specifically designed for FAT file systems. When you execute |
| 13 |
syslinux /dev/hdx |
| 14 |
the device is prepared to launch syslinux at boot time. If you want to |
| 15 |
do it manually you have to execute that command. Remember that syslinux |
| 16 |
uses the file syslinux.cfg (at the root of the msdos partition) as a |
| 17 |
boot time configuration. |

Sorry, I don't know more about it and I never quite diagnosed the issue |
| 20 |
with it and my soekris. But I had the same issue with LEAF Bering. |

Alternatively, you can try it's "-s" option. |
