Good question......I'll take a look at these questions tonight because they
caught my eye as well
Im pretty sure from the DOS prspective syslinux still will run but from the
Debian Slink prespective it *appears* that it needs glib 2.1 but CAN be
compiled differently via instructions in "distrib.doc"
I will experiment with this tonight ...
and yes...im well aware that this is not a core componant of LRP/LEAF
however one of my major (probably ONLY) gripes about LRP is that the
packages and support programs are rarely updated......is this something that
should change in LEAF? in my opinion ...yes....but im curious what others
think.....any voices?
