The answer I was given when I asked this was that the area is limited to
2.88 megs. However, what about making a small dos area with lilo and some
kind of menu. It could look at a directory of kernel images asking the
user to pick one to boot, and then use loadlin. I guess the only problem
I see is looking at that directory on the cd, maybe it could only be a
.bat script on the disk.
