        The version I use is SYSLINUX 1.76 2002-08-27 

        Syslinux is a bootloader like LILO or GRUB. It's purpose is to boot the
system, find the linux kernel and launch it. It's a light and
specifically designed for FAT file systems. When you execute 
        syslinux /dev/hdx
        the device is prepared to launch syslinux at boot time. If you want to
do it manually you have to execute that command. Remember that syslinux
uses the file syslinux.cfg (at the root of the msdos partition) as a
boot time configuration.

        Sorry, I don't know more about it and I never quite diagnosed the issue
with it and my soekris. But I had the same issue with LEAF Bering. 
        Alternatively, you can try it's "-s" option.
