Jesse's not entirely right---there's a milo.exe, which, under the ARC
console, is called by linload.exe, which is called directly bar ARC. But
milo doesn't have to be re-run, and it doesn't have a config file. This is
an unfortunate defect, one Chris and I may try to remedy (it would be damn
nice if it did, as it would simplify stuff a lot...)
None of which should matter a whit. I will be entirely satisfied with a
solution that at least gets the right bits in the right places---if people
then need to monkey with milo or arc, so be it. At least the kernel files
themselves will be managed by kernel-package stuff.
Mike.
