| slaxemulator@9309 | 3 Linld is a Linux loader for DOS. I wrote it when loadlin failed to load newer |
| slaxemulator@9309 | 4 kernel for me and I found loadlin source to bee too big and complex to fix. |
| slaxemulator@9309 | 5 |
| slaxemulator@9309 | 6 So I just wrote a repacement. |

| slaxemulator@9309 | 27 ---------------- |

| slaxemulator@9309 | 30 Some code from linux kernel (setup.S) was used too. |
