| // == DERIVATIVES == | |
| The *Syslinux* suite contains several boot loader (core) derivatives (variants), currently based solely on the boot media: | |
| *SYSLINUX* - Disk (floppy/hard disk) based | |
| *PXELINUX* - PXE network booting | |
| *ISOLINUX* - ISO9660 (CD/DVD; El Torito) based | |
| Prior to v4.00, *SYSLINUX* was only for FAT12/FAT16/FAT32 and another derivative, *EXTLINUX*, was for ext2/ext3 file systems, whose functionality has been merged into *SYSLINUX*. | |
