These are the Linux bootloaders I came up within less than five minutes of searching the ’net: • Acronis OS Selector • AiR-Boot • AKernelLoader • AMIBOOT • APEX • ARAnyM LILO • ARCBOOT • Barebox • Boot Camp • BootIt Next Generation • BootKey • BOOTSTRA.TTP • BootX • BURG • CFE • coreboot • EFI • ELILO • Emile • EXTLINUX • FreeLoader • GRUB 1 • GRUB 2 • GRUB4DOS • Gujin • Gummiboot • Kexecboot • LILO • LOADLIN.EXE • MasterBooter • PALO • Penguin • PMON • PXELINUX • Qi • quik • Redboot • rEFInd • rrload • SILO • Smart Boot Manager • SYSLINUX • TFTPLILO • U-Boot • XOSL • Yaboot • YAMON I’ve heard of barely half of them, and have had personal experience with half of that, but that still makes for a dozen booloaders I know of. Many of these require the user to copy out the kernel and initrd from the Linux-controlled space, for example into NAND flash or a FAT partition or a HFS partition or the host filesystem or whatever. So: No. Not a solution. https://julien.danjou.info/media/images/blog/2014/unacceptable.jpg bye, //mirabilos PS: Thanks, Julien! -- [16:04:33] bkix: "veni vidi violini" [16:04:45] bkix: "ich kam, sah und vergeigte"... -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
