* recognize PS/2 L40 via biosmca() and biosmca_ps2model in gatea20.c, instead
of being a compile time option
* if the system is PS/2 with MCA bus, map DTYPE_ESDI disks to ed(4) for
COMPAT_OLDBOOT
The new code is conditional on SUPPORT_PS2 define, which is on by default
for biosboot-based bootblocks.
macppc/install:
add description of "bad partition number, using 0no bootable HFS
partition" error message
mention that boot floppy must be booted from Open Firmware, you don't just
pop it in the floppy drive like a normal MacOS boot floppy.
example of how to read directory of CD or HD from OF (I think I got the
backslashes generated properly)
describe how to boot a kernel from an HFS partition
reiterate that some OF 1.0.5 machines can't seem to netboot
reverse recommendation of ultra0 and ultra1 busses
common/postinstall:
mention stty erase '^h' or '^?'
macppc/hardware:
mention that Sonnet Tempo ATA/66 card doesn't yet work with macppc
mention that adaptec 294x cards don't boot
mention that promise ultra66 works, but isn't bootable
macppc/prep:
mention that A/UX style partitions are interpreted as NetBSD-style
partitions, also that they're unreadable from MacOS
also describe the printenv command and give examples
mention that you can't hold down command-option-o-f on a PS/2 keyboard
rehash the partitioning section to describe under what conditions you can
have a drive with MacOS and NetBSD partitions, and what are the criteria
for a drive to be bootable under NetBSD.
that return floats must do so in integer registers, as the
pre-SVR4 ABI code did. So in these functions we ignore
__SVR4_ABI__ if __HAVE_68881__ is not also set.
some devices can't handle tag number larger than some values and always
reject commands with QUEUE FULL if the tag number is larger than this.
Under some circonstances the scsipi system may not decrease periph_openings
(as a workaround of other odd behavior) and we may end up requeuing the command
with a hight tag value again, and the driver could loop on this.
Workaround: in case of queue full, decrease periph_openings to
min(periph_active - 1, periph_openings - 1) so that, after some iteration,
periph_openings is less than the max tag value acceptable by the device.
Solves the problem with tagged queuing on ncr53c9x for me.
