-----FW: nuni-0.04 boot loader eliminates 1024 cyl issue-----
nuni is a boot loader for Linux, using ext2 file system and IDE drives.
The reason for this particular loader is to avoid bios limitations by
not
using the bios. For example, there is no 1024 cylinder problem
because the concept of cyliders is not used.  There is also no problem
with a difference in geometry between the bios and linux because neither
the bios nor the concept of geometry is not used.  We can boot from any
place on the drive, up to 137gb.  Also any drive from hda to hdh can be
used.

nuni-0.04 supports zImage and bzImage kernels, kernel command lines, and
various ext2 block sizes.

There is an article about nuni posted at:
http://www.linuxforum.com/plug/index.html
nuni can also be downloaded from there.

I've also posted it at:
ftp://metalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/system/boot/loaders/
The 0.04 version should show up there soon.  If not, you can get it at:
ftp://metalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/Incoming/
