bootstrap supports different boot modi.

For x86:

  1)
     boostrap is started by a multiboot compliant bootloader and modules are
     attached as multiboot modules. GRUB example:

       kernel bootstrap arg1 args2 ...
       module kernel
       module sigma0
       module roottask
       module task1
       ...

   2)
      bootstrap is started by a multiboot compliant bootloader but includes
      all modules by itself. GRUB example:

       kernel bootstrap_hello args...

      For module specifications looks into modules.list

   3)
      bootstrap can boot from real-mode, esp. with pxelinux, i.e. it can be
      booted via PXE. For that it also needs include all images.
      This should also work with syslinux (e.g. from CDs/DVDs). (Note, grub
      can also read is9660 filesystems.)

   4)
      bootstrap starts from protected mode but isn't started by a multiboot
      compliant loader. Also needs to include all modules.

For arm:

   Just the single image mode, i.e. all modules packed into bootstrap.
   Anything else doesn't make any sense (currently).


Generating bootstrap in single-image-mode:

 Call make with E=entryname, e.g.

 $ make E=hello


Local customization:

 You can put a Makeconf.local file right into this directory
 (bootstrap/server/src) where you can specify your own search paths etc.
 Note that it is encouraged to have your local configuration in src/conf
 rather than in this bootstrap directory.

 Makeconf.local could look like this:

  BOOTSTRAP_SEARCH_PATH_x86 := ../stuff:/home/joe/dev/l4/kernel/fiasco/build-ia32

  KERN_ARM := build-arm

  ifneq ($(PXA),)
  KERN_ARM     := build-pxa
  ARM_DRV_TYPE  = pxa
  endif

  KERN_PATH := /home/joe/dev/l4/kernel/fiasco/$(KERN_ARM)
  BOOTSTRAP_SEARCH_PATH_arm = ../stuff:$(KERN_PATH):../../../../../bin/arm_sa

  BOOTSTRAP_SEARCH_PATH     = $(BOOTSTRAP_SEARCH_PATH_$(ARCH))
