extlinux looks different (...obviously! ;-) ), but it may work fairly
well.  (Depending on how your testing goes, of course.)  Its operation
looks somewhat similar to grub's operation, at least.  Plus there's no
reinstalling after upgrading kernels (which I really don't like, now
that I've been spoiled by grub).  The PXE option is also interesting
(not for the standard book, but as an option for people that may want
it).

Hopefully that works out.  Thank you!  :-)
