Hi Dietmar,

I'm sorry but I'm not sure that I can send to you my versions of NTLDR and
startrom.com without breaking the licences terms (Slobodan ?). My patch,
because it is a modification of syslinux, is in GPL, and if I want others
to respect this licence, I have to respect others licence too.

Moreover, I'm in holidays (I'm not so sorry for that ;) ) and I only have
them at work.

I will see if I can find links to them but I doubt I can.

In any cases, here are the exact sizes of my files (they were in hexa in
my blobs) :

startrom.com : 24258 bytes
NTLDR: 214016 bytes

They are from the initial release of XPe (SP1), look carefully if you can
find them. If you have a XPE licence, I'm sure you can obtain them legally.

regards,

Rémi
