+It provides a full PXE Implementation enchaced with additional features such

+## U-Boot
+
+[U-Boot](https://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot) is a boot loader for Embedded boards
+based on PowerPC, ARM, MIPS and several other processors, which can be
+installed in a boot ROM and used to initialize and test the hardware or to
+download and run application code.
+
+## FILO
+
+[FILO](https://www.coreboot.org/FILO) loads boot images from local filesystem,
+without help from legacy BIOS services. Expected usage is to flash it into
+the BIOS ROM together with coreboot.
+
+## BOOTBOOT
+
+[BOOTBOOT](https://gitlab.com/bztsrc/bootboot) is a multi-platform,
+architecture agnostic boot protocol. The protocol describes how to boot an
+ELF64 or PE32+ executable inside an initial ram disk image into clean 64 bit
+mode. This version uses libpayload to do that. Initrd can be in ROM or on
+disk a GPT partition or a file on a FAT formatted ESP partition.
 
 ## Linux
 
-There are several projects using Linux as a payload (which was the
-configuration that gave coreboot its original name, LinuxBIOS). That kernel is
-often rather small and serves to load a current kernel from somewhere, e.g.
-disk or network, and run that through the kexec mechanism.
