-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).

SYSLINUX could, however, in conjunction with the UMSDOS filesystem,
completely eliminate the need for distribution of raw diskette images
would also like to hear from you if you have successfully used SYSLINUX,
*especially* if you are using it for a distribution.
