Hallo Erich

this is always the problem in answering different people at once ;)

I agree
LRP=content can be put in a different file now allready.
If  LRP= is empty or not is not important if lrpkg.cfg exists.
The optional configuration files aren't so good documented yet. ( will work
on that :) )

The main reason for my post was to state that
-syslinux.cfg cannot be completely removed. (yet.)
- before we start adapting linuxrc, we should be sure what we want, to
prevent having different versions of this "important file" being used

My suggestion was to leave the system as is but leaving the LRP= string in
syslinux.cfg empty (if necessary at all) and use lrpkg.cfg mandatory for
the package definition.

I believe this is more of a documentation issue than anything else because
this is possible anyway right now.

Concerning the other parameters in syslinux.cfg, e.g. boot media, floppy
switch, serial line Console e.t.c. this was not addressed here and leaves
space for more discussion.
