At the boot help screens, the bottom line says you can press ENTER to boot, but it gives the error message, "No DEFAULT or UI configuration directive found!" I tried adding the syslinux option, "default" at the beginning of the kernel line in live.cfg, but then I got an error saying, "Could not find kernel image: kernel." Then I tried replacing the word "kernel" with "default" in the kernel line, so that the next thing in the line is the path to the kernel (/live/vmlinuz), and that resulted in a kernel panic (Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block).
I've looked at man syslinux a few times, and it's not clear where the word "default" is supposed to go. If someone knows, please tell me. Other option is to change the bottom line of instructions, so it says to do something that will work. (e.g. "- type 'live' and press ENTER to boot the default configuration")

"Enter to boot" what?
at the bottom is a cmdline, to enter nothing is no good, unless "nothing" is mapped to something (e.g. "menu" is defined as a label)
Better if possible, to use ESC to return to main menu and omit "Enter to boot"
The Refracta menu config files are starting to get a bit clunky, hard to follow, with one including the other which includes the other ...
Some people here have plumbed the depths of syslinux configuration, worth a read :

I think all I did was edit menu.cfg to look like
- Code:
menu hshift 15
menu width 49
menu title Refracta
include stdmenu.cfg
include live.cfg
label help
menu label Help
config prompt.cfg
default live
and anytime I press enter it boots.
I will do a clean install and check again though.
