I'm not sure if writing a file system driver is the best starting,

Writing the EFI platform bindings however, is something you will need to
do anyway.

Our EFI boot app located on the system partition (FAT) needs to load
haiku_loader from BFS the way I was thinking. Or are you suggesting
haiku_loader IS the boot app?


Now you understood it :-)


If so, could there be any problem with haiku_loader being in a different ABI?


How so? The haiku_loader to kernel handover is not ABI dependent.
