(LAB) linux as bootloader


Iam looking for an existing public domain implementation,
that uses linux as bootloader. I find on google search a
project called LAB (linux as bootloader), but couldnt locate
the source code. Are there other such implementations,
that are readily available as public domain software.

Even though Grub 2 is modular, I believe one has to
rewrite drivers to work with Grub 2. Whereas in solutions
such as LAB, one could reuse the drivers written for linux,
isnt it. (I understand Grub's motivation is to be OS agnostic).

Also what are the pros and cons of using LAB like solution,
instead of Grub / Grub 2, if I know the only OS I will be ever
loading is linux.

Appreciate your reply

thanks
Joseph
