Dear All,

The system I am currently developing is a Geode based CE.5 device. The
system will install CE from a Compact Flash designated as drive C:.

I can use loadcepc for the debug and release builds, however once the
product is completed I would like a splash screen to be displayed during
boot.

The device will NOT be battery backed, however the customer would like the
option for the system to suspend / resume or cold boot.

I can't decide which bootloader will fulfill my requirements ?

I have played around with the BIOSLoader but this only seems to work for a
floppy drive!

Regards...

Peter
