Hello, I have uploaded on: http://sourceforge.net/projects/gujin/ a new version of my bootloader. It loads and analyse a vmlinuz file (do not need LILO) selected by the user using a graphical menu (up to 1600x1200 32 BPP) and a mouse (serial or PS2). It find all possible vmlinuz* by scanning FAT12/FAT16 and E2FS partitions using BIOS/EBIOS/IDE drivers. Right now it can only be installed on a floppy disk so there is no risk of crashing the tester's partition table (the code to write to hard drive is not included). It is written in C with GCC and execute in real mode. It is GPL. There is a HowTo (containing a FAQ) here: http://sourceforge.net/docman/?group_id=15465 I would be nice if some of you (having 5 minutes and a spare 1.44M floppy) download the 5 minutes test at: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=15465&release_id=18235 and report bugs/success story (maybe not on this list). Just "zcat boot144.img.gz > /dev/fd0" and reboot. It is neither finished nor perfect, but should work on any "standart PC". Sorry to be little off-topic.
