What are those ctrl-* characters (like ^Q)?
Ok, the config isn't entirely self-explaining ;). The ^ marks the hotkey. In this case pushing the q-key without the Ctrl-key directly boots the particular Linux install.
Oops, no, the hotkey does select the menu entry, to boot I still need to enter, but IIRC it's also possible to configure syslinux to directly boot after pushing the hotkey.
It's also possible to select a menu entry by using the cursor up and down keys instead of using the hotkey.
