Created attachment 2798 [details] 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 "=" instead of "?=" Suggested patch attached.
