+Subject: [PATCH 1/9] linux/syslinux: support ext2/3/4 device
+
+* Support ext2/3/4 deivce.
+* The open_ext2_fs() checks whether it is an ext2/3/4 device,
+  do the ext2/3/4 installation (install_to_ext2()) if yes, otherwise go
+  on to the fat/ntfs.
+* The ext2/3/4 support doesn't require root privileges since it doesn't need
+  mount (but write permission is required).
+
+Upstream-Status: Submitted
+
+Signed-off-by: Robert Yang <liezhi.yang@windriver.com>
+Tested-by: Du Dolpher <dolpher.du@intel.com>
