{{{
The issue of booting XP just will not go away.
So, there are two options I see, in order of preference:
1. find some way, using kexec etc., to boot XP under Linux, then put Linux
in FLASH; done
2. revive ADLO
there have been a number of suggestions for how to do the first one.
1. freeldr (vapor?)
2. tinyldr (vapor?)
any non-vaporous ones out there? This note is an attempt to start a
discussion and discovery on this subject.
