I've never tried such a setup, but it should work. There might be
some problems with having stdin closed (since you opened it in write
mode), but I don't know for sure. If it doesn't work, it would be
helpful for you to attach to lamboot with a debugger and let us know
where it is hanging.
Hope this helps,
Brian
