I understand... Didn't know that worms could attach to the bootloader :-) Well, then even fixing this in the bootloader would be too late, if the worm could simply replace the bootloader. I guess it's not a kernel-issue then and should really be addressed in the boot-up sequence (as long as BIOS vendors fail to fix it), be it with or without initrd. regards, Jonas PS: Still not in list, so please CC me on eventual replies. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
