I read a thread on a kernel list archive between you and H. Peter Anvin. 
  It all left me a bit confused.  It seems that he is arguing that the 
kernel needs to call back to the loader to get drivers because you can't 
load them all with the kernel.  Isn't the current practice to load all 
possible drivers for boot devices as an initrd?
