Yes, I do. It just doesn't have any sort of "init" system that's visible from a bootloader. Right now I use grub-legacy to boot embedded applications written using the eCos RTOS via the el torito state2. I take it that won't be something grub2 is capable of doing? Grub2 can only boot Windows or Unix? -- Grant Edwards grant.b.edwards Yow! ! Up ahead! It's a at DONUT HUT!! gmail.com
