Make-SYSLINUX_ROOT-changable-in-image-recipes.patch

As part of my efforts to build live image types with a rootfs growing to larger than 4GB, I need to build a grub configuration which facilitates mounting root on a separate partition.  It seems that SYSLINUX_ROOT is the mechanism to do this, but it cannot be overridden because it is is defined with &quot;=&quot; instead of &quot;?=&quot;

Suggested patch attached.</thetext>
