Yes, my intention is to build a simple IPL for HPPA/Linux. It is a good
idea to utilize the HP ISL to get started, but eventually I think we should
not rely on any HP code. That way, people can "cold install" HPPA/Linux
on a fresh disk and never worry about seeing or using any HPUX ugliness.
In any case, until I get an IPL working, we can get a lot of work done with
HPUX ISL as you mentioned.
Jason.
