Thanks. Sounds cool.
Here is what I am trying to:
I use an IBM Maple (IBM 970 ppc64 cpu) platform. It uses the PIBS
firmware. But I want PIBS to load an embedded linux out of flash. Then,
from that embedded linux environment, I want to load a linux kernel from
the disk. So you are saying that I could use kexec to load the linux
kernel fromthe disk?
Note: The reason why I want to load an embbeded linux is to be able to
run a x86 emulator to emulate video BIOSes so that my graphic card is
initialied correctly.
Thanks
