Syslinux 4.00 released

“After 64 prereleases, 626 commits, 52,742 lines of changes, and
tons of work by many, many people, Syslinux 4.00 is now officially
released.

“Syslinux 4.00 is the first of a set of major code restructuring
releases. The single biggest new features are btrfs and ext4
support, and support for disks larger than 2 TiB.

“Huge thanks to:

– Intel, for sponsoring mine, Alek Du’s and Feng Tang’s work on
Syslinux (Feng’s work will be included in a subsequent
release);
– Shao Miller, Gert Hulselmans, Erwan Velu, Gene Cumm, and Thomas
Bächler for all your work and especially your work during the

– Liu Aleaxander, Pierre-Alexandre Meyer, Steffen Winterfeldt,
Sebastian Herbszt, Ferenc Wagner and Paul Bolle for major
development work.
