Problems

isolinux.bin won't allow tab char in menu.txt. It shows up weirdly.
isolinux.bin only recognize 8.3 file names. So my memtest86 won't boot. Have to sepcify /isolinux/memtest8 to lanuch it. Change memtest86 to memtest.86
Norton Ghost Network don't have CDRom support! So I can't use it to write my CDROM's image to disk.
