Goodie! I have already one bug reported so a new 1.01 is probably coming

Also might need to make the installation a bit more safe - right now you
get into trouble if you upgrade the loader before base... Cough.

Yes, that is exactly the idea. But it isn't there yet. Next on my list -
and then dependencies. :)
