There are people successfully booting LEAF with Grub and LiLO. The DOS trunciation wouldn't happen if the /boot partition is compressed in the initrd.lrp and/or root.lrp. I'm not aware of any of the filesystem in LEAF that isn't compressed in a *.lrp other than the kernel and syslinux. -- ~Lynn Avants Linux Embedded Firewall Project developer http://leaf.sourceforge.net ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.NET email is sponsored by: SourceForge Enterprise Edition + IBM + LinuxWorld = Something 2 See! http://www.vasoftware.com _______________________________________________ leaf-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-devel
