Good question! MLO is binary with a header containing the memory location to load the file and the size of the file. You can find more info on boot loader at: http://omappedia.org/wiki/Bootloader_Project

I know above does not give you abbreviation but looking at above I think the abbreviation might be Memory LOcation!!

Hi,

I just learned from Jean-Luc of our Romcode team that it means "Mmc LOader" :)

And Mmc stands for MultiMediaCard, or so I think.
