Re: load_end == bss_end == -1

[Yuri Zaporogets]

Hello Okuji,

Yesterday I discovered that my latest patch was wrong.. 'boot.c' checks
'load_end_addr' in two places, and if it's zero, it reports "Invalid
or unsupported format".

New patch fixes this problem; I've tested it before sending :) . Excuse
me for the inconvenience.

%) This final patch includes update of 'multiboot.texi' as well.

P.S. You may take a look how this technique works in practice; I've just
uploaded a floppy image with updated GRUB and snapshot of RadiOS kernel :)

Thanks again,
