[patch] returning to menu in syslinux
Hi
When using isolinux, the default is to start in the fancy vesa menu.
With the 'help' entry in menu.cfg the user jumps to prompt.cfg .
prompt.cfg includes exithelp.cfg with an entry to go back to the menu:
label menu
kernel {$LIVE_DATA_PATH}/vesamenu.c32
config isolinux.cfg
This indeed works well. As long as you use isolinux. With syslinux
(e.g.: on the usb-hdd) you need to have 'syslinux.cfg' in the last line
of that file.
The attached patch does this in a rather non-elegant-but-working manner.
