For bootimg, which does quite similar things, you may want to try the patches by Mission Critical Linux, which include bootimg http://oss.mclx.com/downloads/patches/ (up to 2.4.7, ia32 only) You also need their version of bootimg(8) in mcore-user, http://oss.mclx.com/projects/mcore/download.php There is documentation on http://bootimg.sourceforge.net/ bootimg differs from kexec in that it tries to handle as much policy as possible in user space, keeping the kernel part comparably small. - Werner -- _________________________________________________________________________ / Werner Almesberger, Lausanne, CH wa@almesberger.net / /_http://icawww.epfl.ch/almesberger/_____________________________________/ - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
