I modified kernel_reload_write() to handle ELF kernels and now I have
a functional /dev/reload again. I removed the aout stuff since it does
not make any sense on an ELF system, IMO.
The new code isn't finished yet, some tweaks are still to be done. I
would like to get rid of the chipmem requirement. Is this possible?
Another thought is, to only allow reboot if the machine is in single
user mode.
