Oh, I thought isolinux can also use the same folder as the bootloader resides in. The idea was to be able to just copy the arch/ folder to a USB and install syslinux on it, without modifying configuration files (beyond adjusting the label. Right now, you need to change syslinux.cfg massively). Using a subfolder would be nice for the Arch media to coexist with other programs on the USB. If we have to keep /boot or /syslinux, then you'll loose this. Does ISO Level 1 support something equivalent to symlinks?
