Hi
I am newbie on Uboot or other boot loaders context.we intend to
install our Linux based OS on Portwell (is not Embedded ) appliances
and want to choose one boot loader with some features.Of course our
appliances have BIOS. before any argue, one question arises:
Is it possible to install Uboot on system that has BIOS? if so, Is it
reasonable ?
Some features we have need :
1- show detail information about hardware before loading kernel,such
as storage system,ram capacity,CPU family and so on.
2- boot over net.
3-load kernel from storage.
I have had some search on LILO, but before any decision, I want to
make sure about other boot loaders.
Thanks for any help or guidance
