I'm planning on releasing 6.01 next week. The list of changes (so far)
are appended below. This is going to be a quick bug fix release, mainly
because of the rather embarrassing bug in the 6.00 that prevents booting
a Linux kernel on BIOS. The idea is to get a fixed release into
everyone's hands ASAP.

Thanks to everyone who has helped with debugging.
