So we're three, right? Wow, Do you think once usb is in we will still be
under (512-64)*1024? This is pretty cool.
Stupid question: a friend tells me there is a way to get a kernel build
that results in a Giant Elf that has kernel, initrd, command line in one
blob. Is this true ? I had not seen this (well, I've seen it on Plan 9,
but not on Linux).
