MontaVista has HHL support for several MIPS boards... including one that my company makes. We've never actually seen their HHL distribution for our board, tho... and we're wondering, how does it boot? I mean, our boards have an elementary boot loader that can load a kernel from the network, and disk-booting is something we're trying to figure out. But how does HHL accomplish this? And is it a general solution for multiple platforms? Matt -- Matthew Dharm Work: mdharm@momenco.com Senior Software Designer, Momentum Computer
