We've talked for awhile about rewriting all the bootup stuff, it's
served us well until now, but it really needs a rewrite to make it a lot
cleaner. Is anyone interested in taking this on? Helge?
The new version should use the same PDC calls as the rest of the kernel,
use the entire LIF structure declared in the HPUX header files.
Philipp, did you have any other thoughts?

Alex,
I am interested in helping since I've been struggling to get the kernel to
boot on the PA-RISC 2.0 architecture.
