Michel Daenzer is the apus kernel package maintainer for debian. a small, but brief note: IS there not a very very big problem with having the kernel in ram: when launching? joining two files up into ram: is no problem (6 lines of code max.) but doesnt ram: just get completely trashed when the bootstrap loads up the kernel (and thus corrupting the kernel image?) i thought this was the case and people have to have the installer and kernel on media, rather than in volatile ram: > 3) coordinate with alan for the floppy disk booting thingy. working on disk-layout, tools and required libraries now. alan |
