RE: [Xen-ia64-devel] elilo compressed dom0 kernel support

["Magenheimer, Dan (HP Labs Fort Collins)" <dan.magenheimer@xxxxxx>]

Any opinions on whether we should replace
xen-ia64-unstable.hg/xen/arch/ia64/tools/xelilo/xlilo.efi
with Alex's version?

If yes, should we remove/replace the other elilo files
(patch and README) in that directory?
