I wrote small stub that allows you to load Menuet kernel from any linux loader.
http://menuetlibc.sourceforge.net/mldr.tar.bz2 cat ldr with kernel.mnt e.g. cat ldr kernel.mnt > kernel.bin and load kernel.bin from any linux loader. Loader thinks that it loads linux kernel. |

I prefer to use 'dd' as it can be slightly more reliable than 'cat' for this task:
Code: dd if=floppy.img of=/dev/fd0 OR: cp ldr.bin kernel.bin dd if=floppy.img >>kernel.bin |

I think I see the mistake. It should have been: Code: cp ldr.bin kernel.bin dd if=kernel.mnt >>kernel.bin I had it concating ldr.bin with the floppy image at first... |
