 # Petitboot - A kexec-based bootloader
 
-Petitboot is a bootloader designed to run in a Linux environment for OPAL on PowerPC/POWER machines and the Playstation 3.
+Petitboot is an operating system bootloader based on Linux kexec.  It can load any operating system image that supports the Linux kexec re-boot mechanism like Linux and FreeBSD.
+Petitboot can load images from any device that can be mounted by Linux, and can also load images from the network using the HTTP, HTTPS, NFS, SFTP, and TFTP protocols.
 
-Development

+Current platform support includes PowerPC/POWER with OPAL, the Sony Playstation 3, and ARM64 with ACPI.  Petitboot can be built and run on other platforms, but it will not include all available features.
 
-Petitboot's home is at [ozlabs.org](http://git.ozlabs.org/?p=petitboot); clone it with ` git clone git://git.ozlabs.org/petitboot `
+See the petitboot [man pages](man) for more info.
 
-Development and discussion occurs on the Petitboot mailing list: [petitboot@lists.ozlabs.org](https://lists.ozlabs.org/listinfo/petitboot)
