3. What needs to be done to boot other OSes with ramdisk

Essentially a version of mknbi similar to mknbi-dos needs to be written for that OS and filesystem. For example, for ELKS, the setup code in first.S would do validity checks for a Minix filesystem and mknbi would create a Minix ramdisk.

I have not done this. Please let me (and the netboot community) know if you have success with this.
