Overview
mkelfImage is a program that makes a elf boot image for linux kernel images. The image should work with any i386 multiboot compliant boot loader, an ELF bootloader that passes no options, a loader compliant with the linuxBIOS elf booting spec or with the linux kexec kernel patch. A key feature here is that nothing relies upon BIOS calls, but they are made when necessary. This is useful for systems running linuxbios.
