This is for any future readers with problems occurring with Syslinux. Syslinux version 3.0 or later can handle FAT32 partitions. The documentation found on the web can be for older versions. The documentation states the problem of FAT32. The latest (that I have) version 3.60 of Syslinux documentation does not have the warning. Puppy 3.01 uses Syslinux 3.36 that is why there is no problem.
