* libinstaller: implement syslinux_already_installedPaulo Alcantara2011-04-151-0/+1
| | | | | | | | syslinux_already_installed function will be used in both extlinux and syslinux for checking if the boot sector has either the string "SYSLINUX" or "EXTLINUX" in the OEMID field. Signed-off-by: Paulo Alcantara <pcacjr@gmail.com>
* Switch to 64-bit sector pointers everywhereH. Peter Anvin2010-06-151-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | Switch to consistent use of 64-bit sector pointers; this should enable booting even for individual *partitions* larger than 2 TB. In order to not slow down the boot too much, switch the initial load from an enumeration to an extent map. This means the table gets larger (since we have to assume the worst case), but it simplifies the Sector 1 code (since we can push all the hard stuff into the installer), and will speed up booting in the general case.

* unify common parts of extlinux and syslinux installerAlek Du2010-05-201-0/+20
Thus we can share same command line options and reduce a lot of dup code... Seems like a big patch, but the changes are quite safe, no much logical change. Signed-off-by: Alek Du <alek.du@intel.com> Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>
