Hi, 

I am modifying netboot to do smartcard code signing.  I found that
netboot can only boot multiboot compliant kernels.  (1) Is there a way
to convert ordinally kernels, e.g., Linux and *BSD, to multiboot
compliant?  (2) Is it possible to modify netboot to boot non-multiboot
compliant kernels? 

Thanks.
