I think we need to list up what information must be passed by a boot loader on every architecture and each architecture first. I made two new pages on the wiki:

http://www.autistici.org/grub/moin.cgi/MultibootRequirements
http://www.autistici.org/grub/moin.cgi/MultibootIdeas

Feel free to edit these pages.

I think some survey is required. It would be worth checking how existing systems deal with each architecture (such as Linux, NetBSD and L4KA).


I am not sure how applicable it is here, but when I read about tags
I immediately thought of IEEE1212 directory format. Anyone think
that can be useful here ?
