Package: syslinux Version: 2:4.02+dfsg-7 Severity: minor Hi,
according to Michael Prokop's blog entry [1] the newly introduced grub- imageboot package [2] (maintainer Alexander Wirt CC:ed) adds support for image files in /boot/images, whereas extlinux expects them in /boot. This will result in unexpected behaviour and inconvenience for users when switching from one bootloader to another. Please agree upon a common location for these image files.
