Syslinux 3.81 is primarily a bug fix release.  The main new features
are halt-on-idle support and some features to isohybrid, including the
ability to boot from an image written to a partition.

Changes in 3.81:
	* Shuffler: fix bug in real-mode entry.  This affected a
	  number of modules, probably in relatively unimportant ways,
	  but it completely broke linux.c32.
	* Improved performance.
	* Attempt to halt the processor while idle.  This can cause
	  bad reponsiveness when using a serial console especially for
	  automated input; if that ends up being a problem, use the
	  new "NOHALT 1" configuration command.
	* linux.c32 now suppresses all messages if the "quiet" flag is
	  specified.
	* isohybrid: add a variety of options, and a help message.
	* ISOLINUX: fix booting in hybrid mode when CBIOS is used.
	  This unfortunately means that the isohybrid handoff protocol
	  has changed, so the isohybrid utility must version-match
	  isolinux.bin.
	* Drop support for ACPI 3 extended memory flags.
	* Menu system: don't set the autocr flag on the serial
	  console.
	* altmbr: fix handling of logical partitions.
	* altmbr: cap at 439 bytes so the partition select byte isn't
	  part of the file.

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.

		This version includes gPXE, to allow accessing network
		files via other protocols than TFTP.
