Linux boot loader

Question

I'm trying to boot Linux on a GPS device from a SD card.

I have found some informations about the device on Internet and apparently it's possible to load a customized Windows CE.

To achieve this, they use a boot loader file that has the extention ".bld"

I extracted the ISO of Ubuntu MID on the SD card, but there is no files with a bld extension. I guess it use a different boot loader system .. which doesn't seem to work on the device.

So my question is;

Is there a way to use a "bld" file to boot Linux ? If so, how can I create the file ?

I'm sorry if the question is stupid or off-track, I don't know much about boot loaders ..

In case you wonder, here's the device:

Edit: Turns out I only had to put a file named "YFGo2CE.bld" (the file only contains a random string) on the SD card and reset the device. From there I can boot directly in WindowsCE and load the suggested Haret ROM tool.

Thanks!
