BTW, I suppose this may be a problem for the NSLU2 people (but not for Debian) because they cannot afford to waste flash space. I thought of putting both APEX and the Linux kernel in one partition and have APEX read the offset of the Linux kernel from the end of the partition but I fear that this won't work either because the partition can probably not be *longer* than 8 blocks either (but I haven't tested this). -- Martin Michlmayr http://www.cyrius.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
