* Applied patch from Fred Yang <fred.yang@intel.com> to support the
vmm= boot option. This option specifies the kernel image for a
virtual machine monitor (aka hypervisor). The vmm= and image=
options are used together to load both the hypervisor kernel and
the guest domain kernel into memory. If a vmm= option is not
specified, elilo defaults to the old behavior of loading and booting
to the image= kernel.
* Added support for compressed image= files when used with the vmm=
option. If the image= file is detected to be gzip compressed, the
image will be uncompressed into memory before it is provided to the
hypervisor. Any combination of compressed and uncompressed images
can be used for the image and vmm options.

* Applied patch from Tristan Gingold to add dcache flush and sync with
icache to gzip and plain loaders. This ommision was just noticed now
due to the much larger caches in Montecito, and the smaller size of
Xen (as compared to the linux kernel).

image that was selected interactively (iff the newly selected image
did not have an initrd).
* Added support for subnet-specific config files in netfs.
