I am indeed booting from the SD card with u-boot, and then with a
simplistic custom loader. I plan on porting loader(8) but the kernel
is too time consuming for the moment. I remember reading some slides
by Rafal Jaworowski on how to have u-boot run loader(8), but I didn't
have the time yet to investigate if this went further. Once the
capability exists, I guess it is fairly easy to tell loader(8) to
fetch the kernel on a FAT partition. It would save me a lot of typing
for sure :P

Regarding the kernel configuration, I am not at a stage where the
kernel finishes booting, so it won't be of much use to you at the
moment. I will keep you posted when I manage to the end of the kernel
init.
