Indeed, if you stick to ET_EXEC then it's only marginally more complex than a.out. I doubt it would take more than 150 lines of code to pull it off and it's a much saner executable file format for the 21st century. I'm assuming there's no dynamic linking support here and that you only care for a basic ELF loader. Do you have pointers to online resources on Minix-vmd and a public source tree repository somewhere? minix-vmd.org seems down... No guarantees, but I do seem to be the type that does random drive-by contributions to open-source software.
