and prom version. Little tweaks to prom during secondary boot are
much easier then fragile work-arounds in the kernel. Currently this
is used for JavaStation 1 with OBP3.
- Use loadfile for both boot and installboot
- Fix problems with linking in bootxx
- Make installboot work with both a.out and ELF bootxx
- *WILL NOT BOOT YET ELF KERNELS* (a.out kernels work) I am working on it.
netbsd, netbsd.gz, netbsd.old, netbsd.old.gz, onetbsd, onetbsd.gz
and vmunix, in that order. this is used by the bootable `bootfs'
image (suitable for floppies and cdroms), which contains a netbsd.gz
by default.
while i'm here, fix up `boot [device] -s' which got broke when
booting kernels with a - in their name was fixed..
use the `a_entry' field from the kernel's header as a base.
Pass on a new DDB magic number to the kernel, so kernels linked for a
different KERNBASE value can apply a correction when booted from old
bootblocks.
ports' boot programs. Also added support for loading gzip'd kernels,
useful for booting from floppy. From Jason R. Thorpe <thorpej@nas.nasa.gov>,
tested by Matthew Green <mrg@eterna.com.au> and Erik Fair <fair@clock.org>.
