* Try to HLT the processor during idlesyslinux-3.81-pre4H. Peter Anvin2009-05-181-0/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | Try to HLT the processor during idle. All the events we care about should have interrupts associated with them, except possibly the serial console. Try to deal with the serial console by waiting some time before going into HLT, and giving the user the option of enabling the serial console interrupt, on the assumption that the BIOS will simply IRET.

| | | | | | | | | | Document the new -r (for RAID) option and bootsecfile as pointed out by Gert Hulselmans. -r (RAID) option is described correctly in the man page, so I cut and paste this description here. bootsecfile parameter perhaps needs more explanation.

| | | | | | | | | Add a new "UI" directive to specify a user interface module, instead of abusing the DEFAULT directive. This allows the DEFAULT directive to be used for setting the default, even when the menu system is enabled. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>
