HI all,

 

I have been investigating how to boot Linux as bootstrap to boot another
Linux.

 

>From my understanding, Linux has a kexec system call which provides
overlay another Linux image on the current running Linux. 

 

Is my understanding correct?

 

Is there any other available tool that I can use?

 

 

 

Many thanks in advance,

 

Biz
