Boot Loaders

It is advisable that if you are building your own image, you also build a boot loader to match. The only files you require that are different to a standard Linux /boot directory are startup.nsh, boot.nsh and a copy of GRUB compiled for EFI. Please see the EFI page for details.

Instructions
In order to use any of these boot loaders, you will need to do the following:


 * 1) Partition a USB stick to contain a 64MB FAT16 partition as the first partition.
 * 2) Add additional partitions as your OS requires (eg. swap space and storage).
 * 3) Copy the contents of your chosen boot loader onto the FAT16 partition.
 * 4) Copy the Linux distribution of your choice (with matching kernel) onto your storage partition.
 * 5) Plug the USB stick into the Joggler and boot.

Your operating system kernel must have support for your filesystem (eg. ext3 / ext4 / btrfs) and have an appropriately configured /etc/fstab file.

Mer and Ubuntu MID have been used with this boot loader.
