(I don't really get why, NASM is so much better in bootloader-like things...) - modified grub-mkrom to be able to compile it (dunno whether the current cpp + as + ld is the correct way, but it works) - added static offsets in image for the runtime variables... - modified romchk to be able to modify 'em - added grub-mkrom to be able to pass the variables to romchk (also has --help now) - added a tiny clean-binaries script ... it's just replacing "make clean" for now. And here's the new archive: http://88.193.31.35:8080/urjaman/romboot2.tar.gz (or http://rapidshare.com/files/72238464/romboot2.tar.gz.html ).
