HDT provides a curses-like interface to display lots of hardware info about your machine at bootloader time. We don't install /boot/hdt.c32, but if it's present (it can be copied from /usr/share/syslinux/hdt.c32), we add a menu entry for it---in preference to, rather than in addition to, memtest, since HDT has a menu entry which invokes memtest. Using HDT to its full capacity requires finding or generating modules.pcimap and pci.ids files for your machine, and installing them in /boot. We might want to document this, which I don't here (but the online docs for HDT do). These aren't required to use other functionality of HDT; and it's pretty useful already without those.
