Package: aboot (0.9b-3+etchnhalf.1)

Linux bootloader for the SRM console

This is the standard Linux bootloader for machines with SRM firmware installed. If you're using ARC or AlphaBIOS, you have to use MILO instead.

Aboot allows booting from hard disk, CD-ROM, and floppy. It also provides what you need to make kernel images that can be booted over a network using BOOTP/TFTP.
