>Has the patch been committed?

 No. It was a bit of a hack, and I deleted it from
my local copy since it isn't needed when net-booting.
CD/hard-drive booting show it up, though.

 The other uncommitted loader patch is to the iso9660
module so it can recognise HFS+ hybrid CDROMs. I haven't
committed that since I want to re-organise the code so
that loader can recognise hybrid and 'pure' ISOs e.g. to
support older OFW versions :-)

 Will do.

later,

Peter.
