Hi, I was looking at booting an x86-based platform using DT. However I wasn't able to find a bootloader that supports this. There also doesn't seem to be a method to append the DTB to the zImage (which I wouldn't want to use anyway). Does anybody know of a bootloader that supports this? I'm currently using syslinux (specifically extlinux) and was looking at perhaps adding the support myself based on the information given in Documentation/x86/boot.txt. However I'm not overly familiar with syslinux code and this could prove more difficult than I anticipate. The only x86 platforms that use DT seem to be OLPC and CE4100 and according to the web the OLPC has a complete OF implementation. Does anyone know which bootloader the CE4100 uses? Thierry
