History

Axel Dörfler e3fcb58ebb The boot loader now has special support for being booted from a boot image

like floppy or CD boot.
This allows it to reduce the number of scans needed to identify the boot
partition - when booted from a real floppy, this speeds up the boot
process by a magnitude.
Also, the loader now has a fall back in case there were no "boot" links
on the disk - the current boot floppy script doesn't create them.
With these changes, I was able to boot into a HD based Haiku installation
from a floppy disk. It's not yet enough to boot from CD (as the boot
device selection is a bit too simplistic right now), but it will eventually
come next. Testing is a lot slower here, though, as neither qemu nor
Bochs support multi-session CDs (at least I have no idea how to get them
to do this).
