I trying to cobble together a simple Hello World ``kernel'' on the

understand that OF 3.0 groks ELF, but the ELF file should contain
some special information in the note section (and have the PT_NOTE
thing). This special information entails the values for load-base and
real-base (among other things) that are to be used. Here is where I
become confused.
Noone except IBM CHRP cares about the PT_NOTE.
Proof: yaboot doesnt have one, and yaboot works fine for everyone.
