Setting the syslinux status to "Invalid" for now: currently syslinux is
being instructed to "localboot 0x80" from the boot menu, which relies on
the BIOS actually setting the first (non-syslinux-containing) disk to
this address. For folk booting from remapped drives, this fails. Note
that there may be a syslinux bug related to this issue, that syslinux
may not have sufficient syntax to allow a menu item to express "boot
from a hard drive other than the one that just booted" beyond reliance
on BIOS calls (e.g. -1 to send 18h): in such a case, if someone wants to
repoen this issue against syslinux to address that, rather than creating
a new bug, I encourage them to unset the invalid status.
** Changed in: syslinux (Ubuntu)
Status: Triaged => Invalid
