Do we really need yaboot? (Just looking for a workaround...)

Kawachiya cannot netboot for political reasons in his lab, so he
actually installs Xen on his Local Disk.
We should certainly support this booting model and so he is sorta
stuck with a bootloader and yaboot is what we are all stuck with ATM.

Can't SLOF load Xen from disk?

Good question, I think it may do iso-9660 and fat16, and I heard that ext2 might be supported, but I'd be surprised if SLOF can do reiserfs
