Title: Boot Loader
Post by: Vineet on December 08, 2001, 11:38:53 AM

As a learning experience i would like to explore the e-smith boot loader (which loads the kernel into memory). Would anyone help me in doing so or giving me a link to study?

Or if I can get the source of the e-smith boot loader i can also read that.

SME uses Lilo to boot so if you take a look at their project page on freshmeat (http://freshmeat.net/projects/lilo/) you should find out what you want to know...
