in my dreams, i want a touch UI on bootscreen with big iconified buttons for differents OSes (Maemo 5, MeeGo 1.1, Android 2.1 ...), or at least a text UI with a list, without le need of removing/inserting the SD card.

U-boot is a boot manager that can handle most OSes. I still don't get it, what do people think is missing exactly?

Menus and touchable eye candy, I think. As I understand it, u-boot can do this (at least, it can do menus controlled by keyboard if not by the touchscreen), but I haven't found any instructions on this yet.

This is NOT easy, user friendly software as-is. This is the archetype of very flexible, multi-OS, multi-language, completely user un-friendly software that was soo common in the early Unix/Linux days.
If only all people people involved in Maemo/Meego/NITdroid kernel building (think people like Matan, JoergRW, MohammadAG, Paul Fertser, Titan, stskeeps, e-yes, DJ-Steve, Nokia & Intel themselves and others) would work together on making everything u-boot compatible, to make it easy.
