==Should I use stivale1 or stivale2?==

Whilst stivale1 is easier to implement (for both bootloader programmers and kernel programmers), it is limited in design, and it lacks some features which are exclusive to stivale2 such as SMP support (multicore), support for mapping the framebuffer as write combining using the [[MTRR]]s, and likely more features in the future as they will be added exclusively to stivale2 and not stivale1.

stivale1 is demonstrated here for completeness's sake, but stivale2 should be the go to choice in the future.
