Peter, I've tested your loader today, it more or less works but I'm not sure what's the proper method of compiling it? From my understanding, this should be classic executable for TOS, with main() and friends but apparently it is not, there's only loader_init() function. When I replace it with main(), it works, but it ignores mint.ini...

Ah! Well, make a copy of the xaloader directory. Copy my loader into xaloader.c.
OK, I've made standalone directory in tools for this, I compile it in your proposed way, it has really a few KBs now. The problem is what I've mentioned in my last sentence -- your loader makes mint kernel ignoring (not finding?) mint.ini! When I change something and write it, it correctly updates <sysdir>/mint.ini but for some reason it can't read it. Any chance you could fix it? :)
