There is enough appeal to the simplicity of FILO that we're not as 
interested (here anyway) in the etherboot integration. FILO is a small 
simple loader that does what it does well; Etherboot is a whole lot more 
complex. That does not mean I think merging it in is bad, but I also would 
like to see it maintain its seperate existence.
