The filo is merged into Etherboot. And it will be released in 5.2.6 formally I guess.
that's a plus and a minus for us. It's nice seeing FILO get pulled into supported software like Etherboot. But we've had uneven luck building a working etherboot here. And ETherboot still does far more than we want.
I would need to put the same kinds of mods into etherboot, and then build etherboot in a way in which all the ethernet support is not compiled in. In other words, I want to compile an etherboot down to FILO!
It is simpler to just use FILO directly.
