Hello all,
I have done more work on the syslinux shuffle library. This is more
higher-level work, in particular it is specific to loading Linux kernels.
This stuff allows manipulating initramfs on the fly, if desired. As a
demo, I have written up a module which loads a Linux kernel with all the
usual stuff, but optionally adds the DHCP packet from the PXE stack into
a file named /dhcpinfo.dat in the initramfs.
I really hope it is abstracted enough that it should be readily
accessible to everyone; the main file is only 235 lines including comments.
