\fBEXTLINUX\fP is a new syslinux derivative, which boots from a Linux ext2/ext3/ext4/btrfs or xfs | ||
filesystem. It works the same way as \fBSYSLINUX\fP, with a few slight modifications. | ||
It is intended to simplify first-time installation of Linux, and for creation of | ||
rescue and other special-purpose boot disks. | ||
.PP | ||
The installer is designed to be run on a mounted directory. For example, if you have an | ||
ext2 or ext3 usb key mounted on /mnt, you can run the following command: | ||
