i think i agree with Andy :-)
	but i already write some code about read qi.conf, whatever attach is
the diff and qi.conf  :( ,  i can not see the output so i don't know
it's work or not. very sad.

- ------------------
 the QI's job is:
	-boot kboot kernel
	-or boot normal kernel

 the kboot job is:
	-all the dfu work
	-boot from (SD card,NFS,...) with graph
	-may be a shell can recuse normal rootfs

i read Werner's first plan again and again, but i still don't know where i
start about kboot kernel.
so i need some help about make kboot kernel work on GTA02, and make dfu
mode work on kboot.

thanks.
