Does anyone have a recipe for such a thing?
I currently have a split FAT32/UFS install USB stick but I'd like to get=20
it to just FAT32 if possible..

I think I can do it once I can run the loader - I can then load an MFS=20
and use UZIP for the FSs and so on..

I have been playing with Syslinux but it doesn't like=20
loading /boot/loader as a linux kernel and I'm not sure which format to=20
try.

I think I can get it to work using the memdisk syslinux thing but that=20
seems like a kludge..

=2D-=20
