Ralf, Thank you for reply. I wonder if I can take the initialization routines from it to use in my custom flash bootloader? I do not mean "cut & paste" bu rather ideas. I need a loader that will copy the kernel with a ramdisk from flash to ram and start the kernel. I saw that there is something similar in milo. By the way, how do supported machines boot nowadays? Lilo? Thanks, michael.
