Patch: Parse append arguments properly in mboot module
Hey guys, I noticed the appended ipappend options end up in the beginning of the cmdline argv[] when mboot is entered. mboot then tries to parse the first argument as the name of the kernel module and promptly fails cuz it can't find "ip=.." or "bootif=...". I'm attaching a patch which basically looks for any arguments in the argv[] array and appends them to the kernel cmdline. The arguments have to be back-to-back to be considered "appened options", so this should be safe enough to not take out-of-place arguments and tack onto the kernel cmdline. Last time i sent in some of the elf section loader patches, i think Peter had trouble importing time. Hopefully it works now. thanks, Ram Yalamanchili
