Never mind. Having thought about it, its an idea that probably better resides
in pvgrub.
I was just thinking about how tedious it has been to have to put an actual
kernel into a boot image, it might be easier to have machines pick up their
kernels from an https url in some cases. Just feels like the boot
process/server hardware is overly tightly coupled to the unikernel, it least in
the case of the tedious and annoying fiddling that EC2 requires until you find
the correct incantation that it wants.
Again, I don't know anything about ec2, so I don't really know what
you're talking about. It's "in some cases" that caught my eye. Since
you need to get it right anyway, what's the point of adding the extra
complexity?
