RedBoot can do a fair amount of this already - and is in use on a number of embedded platforms as a boot loader. Getting the LinuxBIOS board setup code to start RedBoot, then using RedBoot to boot Linux would be nice. Being a derivative of eCos, you can already configure RedBoot fairly well to include the bare minimum of required functionality, and it's fairly bloat-free. It should be a fairly viable option for fitting in 256KiB flash chips. -- dwmw2 (@redhat.com)
