May someone clarify what is the dual boot support in PR 1.3?

Is it a new kernel with kexec fixed? and/or was multiboot integrated in maemo?

Sorry it this is question was already answered.

kexec is fixed, that's it. now we use existing threads and wait for developers....

Thanks, so what's the exact kexec sequence?
I'm trying to load the meego kernel with:

kexec -l /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.35.3-10.3-n900 --command-line="init=/sbin/preinit rootwait root=/dev/mmcblk0p1 console=tty0 nosplash omapfb:vram=0:2M,1:2M,2:2M rw rootfstype=ext3"

and

kexec -e

but the system freezes...
I'd like to see at least the frame buffer console showing kernel messages, but the display will not receive any updates until the system goes down I guess due to watchdog timeout.
