Bug#922251: live-build: support syslinux-efi as (additional) bootloader



Dear Matthijs,

thanks a lot for your work on syslinux-efi, i am relying on syslinux for
Sage Debian Live [1], and more and more laptops are not able to boot on
legacy (bios) formatted devices (including macs).

Is there a chance that this work will be part of buster live-build
package, or is it too late already ?

Ciao,
Thierry
