Bug#672520: syslinux-common: spins on boot, never shows the boot menu
Package: syslinux-common Version: 2:4.05+dfsg-3 Severity: grave Tags: d-i Justification: renders package unusable Steps to reproduce: - in a d-i checkout, run make -C build build_netboot - boot the resulting build/dest/netboot/mini.iso With 2:4.05+dfsg-2 I get the expected boot menu. With -3 nothing happens, with the CPU apparently spinning without making progress. This badly affects the d-i dailies.
