Lion+Snow bootloader and Lion DP2 atom 64bit kernel

We've worked hard on making a non-double faulting bootloader (the credits go to cparm for this).
I've constructed a PC EFI 10.6 that will work on both Lion and older.
It is no longer required to use the kernelcache (you can use also Extensions.mkext or just .kext files)
This is only the first step in the line, next will be an AnVAL and I'm sure cparm will release stuff too
I've also attached atom / new Celeron patched kernel but it'll only work for 64bit cpu's (apple is dropping their legacy 32bit support since Lion with every step...).
Even with DP1 and perfect bootloader and patched kernel it'll halt execution after launchd is launched so...
Patch for Snow Leopard PC EFI 10.6 is also included...
Update: I patched the kernels for Atom (DP1 32+64bit cpus work, DP2 to DP4 64bit cpus work) and also added a little APIC fix (needed for some computers like the HP Mini...).

Atom APIC fixed Kernels for DP1 to DP4:

Sure, but even then 32bit legacy mode disappears.
Seing how the 64bit amd kernel works so far on SnowLeopard I'm guessing it would take a lot of effort to make it work at all, and even then you can't run 32bit apps.
Well thats what the current situation is on SL at the moment.

Anyhow, I'll gladly install Lion on my MBP, going for 64bit kernel only seems like the right move

They will still include a 32bit kernel but it requires a 64bit cpu (without legacy mode set) in order to be able to boot...

Can't wait for the Lion Version of AnVAL, its the only bootloader that works on my Sandy Bridge based System
