I sure hope not.

10.20 and previous releases shipped seperate binaries mostly
because the organizations didn't agree on product requirements.
Not because the technology was so different. They just had different
market requirements.

11.X releases only ship one binary which runs on both 700s and 800s.

Hi,
	Maybe I just missed it, but is the source for the bootloader out 
there anywhere? I'd like to start looking at the code....

I've been working with a friend to do a monolithic port for a while, and 
we'd gotten cross compilers and the beginings of the bootloader written. Now
that there are others working on it, we'll abandon our efforts and concentrate
on your code base.

-Erik
