Hi,
This is my first mail to the list. There don't seem to be any
discussions going on here, so I don't know whether this is the right
place to post the query.

I've been trying to navigate my way through the execution of the
kernel and in the loader directory (boot/powerpc/loader/start.c), a
function called 'main' gets called. I couldn't find this function
though. Any pointers?
