+Here are some sample config files:

+# SERIAL 0 115200
+DEFAULT linux
+PROMPT 1
+TIMEOUT 600
+
+LABEL linux
+ LINUX vmlinuz
+ APPEND initrd=initrd1.gz,initrd2.gz

+In this example, serial port use is disabled but can be enabled by
+uncommenting the first line and utilize serial port 0 at 115200 bps. If
+'linux' is typed on the command line, the kernel-like file 'vmlinuz' is
+executed as a Linux kernel, initrd files initrd1.gz and initrd2.gz are
+loaded as initial ramdisk files (like cpio.gz files for initramfs). If
+'m' is typed on the command line, the COM32 module 'menu.c32' is
+executed to launch a menu system.
