dsl 1.0rc1 uses the ISOLINUX bootloader to start up the DSL livecd.

dsl 1.0rc1-syslinux uses the SYSLINUX bootloader to start it up.

Use the SYSLINUX version for older, troublesome hardware that won't boot under ISOLINUX.

but ISOLINUX is the wave of the future and can support more data in the kernel + miniroot.
