Now that there is Syslinux support in AIF, should AIF select Syslinux as
the "Default" bootloader?
Does Syslinux play nicely with parted and GPT disklabels? Should
Arch be trying to move toward a default bootloader that seamlessly
supports GPT disklabels?
Yes, Syslinux supports GPT as does the syslinux-install_update script
that is included in the arch package.
With the issues stated in Pierre's mail about grub1 I think it makes
sense to make Syslinux the "default". However, I want to know what the
devs think as the "default" bootloader will likely have more new users
using it.
