Sindi.

I tried it and seems like it is better than pico.
Especially, pico doesn't work well at telnet window but e3 does. I've added 
telnet to my ramdrive BL.
You may want to say that gzip,chmod,rm links need to be created in /bin 
directory if ramdrive version of BL is running.
Thanks.

Regards,
Woonsig
