This is a bug fix release; identical to SYSLINUX 3.53-pre6.
Changes in 3.53:
* Fix bugs related to the $PnP BIOS functionality on some
platforms.
* PXELINUX: Fix the "naked" version of :: (suppress prefix.)
* elf.c32: better error messages.
* Faster operation under Intel VT virtualization.
* PXELINUX: Fix DHCP bootfile option.
* mkdiskimage: Support more than 1024 cylinders.
* (Hopefully) fix installer on non-x86 platforms.
* Fix shuffle_and_boot_rm, used by linux.c32.
* Fix shuffle_and_boot_pm on 386/486.
* ISOLINUX (at least): fix bss memory overwrite hang.
* MBR: Fix booting from logical partitions.
* Code cleanups.

Title: syslinux
Version: 3.53
Entered-date: 2007-11-17
Description: SYSLINUX is a collection of boot loaders for the Linux
operating system which operates off Linux ext2/3
filesystems, MS-DOS FAT filesystems, network servers
using PXE firmware, or from CD-ROMs. The FAT
filesystem version can be installed from DOS, NT, or
Linux.
It includes a sophisticated API for add-on "COM32"
modules, including a significant subset of the
standard C library.
It also includes MEMDISK, a tool to boot legacy
operating systems from nontraditional media like PXE
or CD-ROM.
