I have a smallish problem.  We can talk more about it but essentially 
mkelf-linux fails if it wasn't loaded with the etherboot ``generic''
ELF loader.  It should be able to continue to work and just loose
some features if it is loaded by an unrecognized ELF loader.

My version of mkelfImage is getting close to the point where can
looking at merging the code bases, or at least get some cooperation
and code sharing going back and forth.
