Oh, that's even cooler than I imagined. Somehow I took it that your boot loader was messed up as a user, which doesn't often happen, and that you fixed it, which happens even more rarely.
That's way too studly for me. I don't have the patience to understand systems designed by other people, much less fix their buggy code :-)
The stuff you do is all greek to me. I consider C a "low-level" language. ;-) You hardware types scare me and I hold you in awe.
Fortunately the hardware is well-documented and I don't have to write much assembly. People who actually MAKE hardware... I hold them in awe. On the other hand, I also hold anyone who can make a decent software user interface in awe, too, no matter how high-level the language. In short -- competence in whatever area is GOOD. Um, except for advertising. ;-)
