As part of getting native LinuxBIOS support into the Linux kernel, and as part of building standards so that bootloaders can really support multiple OS's, I have modified the linux build and a little of the code so that vmlinux is natively ELF bootable. So neither mknbi nor my mkelfImage is needed...
I have yet to include support for LinuxBIOS but that is straight forward. And with this approach I preserve the very useful property of having a kernel that can boot both with and without LinuxBIOS. Anyway for people who want to play with it the patch is at: ftp://download.lnxi.com/pub/src/linux-kernel-patches/linux-2.4.17.elf_bootable.diff Eric
