Directories: oskit/boot/dos
Target: mkdosimage dosboot.exe
Documentation: some in doc/intro.tex
Original Code Source: Flux Research Group, University of Utah
Description: 
	This directory implements a MultiBoot->DOS boot-adaptor.
	It allows the user to create a DOS-bootable image from a
	MultiBoot-compliant kernel plus any arbitrary boot-modules.

	mkdosimage is a script that generates an image
	that will boot a kernel under DOS.

	dosboot.exe is a DOS boot loader that understands
	multiboot compliant images.
	It requires a GNU linker built with the msdos output
	target (binutils configured with i386-msdos).
