Description: Boot disk creator.
 SYSLINUX is a boot loader for the Linux operating system which operates
 off MS-DOS floppies.  It is intended to simplify first-time installation
 of Linux.  It is *not* intended to be used as a general purpose boot
 loader; once the operating system is installed I recommend LILO as the
 boot loader, except for people whose root filesystem is a UMSDOS
 filesystem (where a DOS defragmenter could wreck havoc with LILO's
 carefully set up block tables) -- for them I recommend Loadlin (which
 loads Linux from the DOS command line).
