The problem is that the second stage bootloader links with libc to bring in some minor functions like the strcmp and such. Ideally, it should be linked without libc just like the kernel. Linking with libc gets into conflicts just like you encountered. The fix is as follows: 1) Modify the Makefile so the second stage bootloader no longer links with libc. Obviously, the userlevel "silo" utility needs to link with libc as usual. 2) Add implementations of any functions that become "missing". Jakub, what do you think?
