Yes. You can load any type of software, including completely
proprietary stuff.

Chapter 8 is a new chapter I intended to add about building and using
Linux kernel modules. I just never found time to add any ral content.
This has nothing to do with U-Boot.

What do you mean what is the status? It's a standard feature like
TFTP download or serial console support... It has always been there,
and always will be.
Best regards,
