I'm not sure. We've had trouble with the naming of this thing forever, since the time when we first started using non-linux-kernel payloads like etherboot. That happened in 2001! In the early days, there was no 'payload' keyword -- the keyword was 'linux' -- since that linux was the only payoad. Right now we generate a family of BIOS types, including open firmware (OLPC); linux payload (name?); etherboot payload (name?); and so on. What makes sense? ron -- linuxbios mailing list [email protected] http://www.openbios.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxbios
