:: I think that I like 3 better. Moving of this information would just clutter up the theory article. This one is more of a how-to anyways. --[[User:Frank|Frank]] 15:36, 5 July 2007 (CDT)

Are we keeping this page and fixing it up or are we going to move its contents to somewhere else? It would be nice to know before I go and fix it up. Thanks. --Frank 09:46, 3 July 2007 (CDT)

I already rewrote parts of the article a while before this version was moved in with the fast merge. The main difference is that the other article is more theoretical but lacks some information that was present. I think we should decide here which way to go:
  1. fix this article and remove Bootloader
  2. copy the remaining information to Bootloader and remove this article
  3. move all remaining theory to bootloader and keep all practical info here in a separate article.
