[Buildroot] [PATCH 1/1] Adding extlinux to sysliux binaries copied into target/images.

[Yann E. MORIN <yann.morin.1998@free.fr>]

Thomas, All,

On 2014-01-05 13:20 +0100, Thomas Lundquist spake thusly:

Subject should be something like:
    syslinux: add option to install extlinux

> Using the mail address I have on Github, which is the reason for the difference
> in addresses.

This should not be part of the commit log. If you want to add somthing
like that, do it after the three-dash line, below...

...here. That '---' line above tells git to ignore it and all that
follows, as not being part of the commit message itself.

Use leading tabs, not spaces.

However, I'd rather we use a generic command, such as:

SYSLINUX_IMAGES-$(BR2_TARGET_SYSLINUX_ISOLINUX) += core/isolinux.bin
SYSLINUX_IMAGES-$(BR2_TARGET_SYSLINUX_PXELINUX) += core/pxelinux.bin
SYSLINUX_IMAGES-$(BR2_TARGET_SYSLINUX_EXTLINUX) += extlinux/extlinux

define SYSLINUX_INSTALL_IMAGES_CMDS
    for i in $(SYSLINUX_IMAGES-y); do \
        $(INSTALL) -D -m 0755 $(@D)/$$i $(BINARIES_DIR)/$${i##*/}; \
    done
endef
