 +Back to multiboot today, more specifically to the decompression part. These days I am going to work on extracting and black-boxing the decompression code from the gzip utility. For starters, I won't try to integrate the code with gPXE, I'll just try and get it to work separately using an input .gz file. By the end of the week I hope to have a working gunzip util.

 +==== Day 6 [ Sat 24 Jul 2010 ] ====
 +
 +No coding today, but a lot of documentation. I am currently trying to understand the DEFLATE algorithm. I played around all day with a decompression implementation from the zlib library and I think with a little bit more time I'll comprehend it all.
