Subject: patch like kexec for MIPS possible?

Salve!
Does the MIPS CPUs makes a patch like kexec possible?
Kexec is a kernel patch which allows you to start another kernel.
IMHO would such a kernel patch would be handy, especialy for
small MIPS Linux boxes. For more info about kexec read e.g.
http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-kexec.html
And please don't get me wrong - as a non-kernel-developer I'm
very happy with your work - my question is not a request,
I'm just interested if there is a limitation of the MIPS
platform to do something like this or not.
Greetings,
rob
PS: And _if_ it would be possible, maybe sombody read this
and join thinking that this feature would be realy cool ;)
