[Xen-devel] Re: [xen-unstable] Remove obsolete tool ''mbootpack''. SYSLINUX now supports Multiboot format.
This is really a great little tool that I''ve gotten a lot of use out of. I still use it for things like QEMU which only supports the Linux boot protocol. Kudos to the guys that wrote this!

It just doesn''t really belong as part of the Xen distro any more. -- Keir _______________________________________________ Xen-devel mailing list Xen-devel@lists.xensource.com http://lists.xensource.com/xen-devel
