Hi!

I'm currently downloading the latest snapshot of the oskit,
and came to think about a thing.

How is images booted on a strongarm? Does the release contain
some form of bootloader?

Have anyone thought about adopting the multiboot standard to
the arm-architecture?

I'm writing my own OS (not using the oskit) and will in the
near future start porting it to the strongarm (EBSA285), but I
really need a facility that can boot the kernel and a boot-module
in some form. Does this already exist ?
