From c5e5c42a68be66cb87573e5c2fcce6f1b5d82bd5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "H. Peter Anvin" Date: Mon, 23 Jul 2012 16:16:17 -0700 Subject: x86, doc: Assign a bootloader ID for "Minimal Linux Bootloader" Assign a bootloader ID for Sebastian Plotz' "Minimal Linux Bootloader" (http://sebastian-plotz.blogspot.de). Sebastian has agreed to make this the pilot for the use of extended boot loader IDs, so this is assigned version ID 0x11 (avoid assigning 0x10 for now to catch bugs with people putting E in the primary ID but leaving the extended ID as zero.)
