I plan to run everything provided by the suspended kernel actually. My idea is to keep a handle to a page of the suspended kernel that contains that code and just kick into it. Copying pages to their final location without overriding the source pages is a bit of a funky job, but I had to do it already with BootX so ... I'll work on that during one of the upcoming few weeks hopefully, I'm a bit swamped with 3 different things at the moment. ben.
