@@ -2,6 +2,42 @@ Starting with 1.47, changes marked with SYSLINUX, PXELINUX, ISOLINUX
or EXTLINUX apply to that specific program only; other changes apply
to all derivatives.

+ * Support for NTFS, by Paulo Alcantara.
+ * EXTLINUX: more robust device detection, allow user to override.
+ * kontron_wdt.c32: Add a new module to enable the hardware
+ watchdog of some Kontron boards. It allows enabling the watchdog
+ and then booting a given image.
+ * HDT updated, and now can display images regarding some detection
+ steps. Add postexec command to run a particular entry after
+ HDT's execution, add silent option and various fixes.
+ * ifcpu.c32: Detect hypervisor presence.
+ * lua.c32: Add dhcp support and support for native Syslinux
+ functions syslinux_config(), syslinux_ipappend_strings() and
+ syslinux_reboot().

+ Microsoft Windows Server 2008R2 (Gene Cumm).

+Changes in 4.05:

+ * isohybrid: -m option to add support for Mac EFI booting.
+ * ifmemdsk.c32: Choose boot option based on presence of
