Also, the plan is that it should one day be possible (one day) to use /boot/
loader (which is an a.out image) and have it pull the kernel and modules
down via tftp or minimal NFS or something.  That of course requires
real-mode network card drivers, or Intel's PXE (preboot execution
environment) to catch on.
