mycroft 8f05f33e49 Move the boot block load address from 3MB to 7MB. The INSTALL kernel is
already too large, and GENERIC won't be far behind.

pk 560567d851 Include <sys/exec.h> instead of <a.out.h>/ 1999-11-08 23:29:56 +00:00
sommerfeld 2e95b13365 Use ${SIZE}, ${OBJCOPY} rather than size and objcopy. 1999-08-21 14:18:36 +00:00
pk fee9cd9c12 Initialize the heap (for alloc()) explicitly, since the `end' symbol
is not necessarily double-word aligned.

pk a554ffdde0 Better pad the artificial header to exactly 32 bytes. 1999-05-03 18:59:08 +00:00
christos 6fc35c7fc8 Casts for PROM_LOADADDR which is not casted anymore. 1999-05-03 16:13:16 +00:00
christos 81248a0851 Add bootinfo struct to pass symtab arguments.
XXX: This does not work with ELF yet, but I don't understand why...

christos 1c8494b7a2 Checkpoint of elf boot stuff:
- 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.

pk 3846cac1e1 Use `-Ttext' switch & collect ld options in LINKFLAGS. 1999-03-05 11:13:39 +00:00
pk d292580f3f Use PROMLIB to streamline this code. This also provides the bulk of
Open Firmware boot code.

mrg bb4584ec40 look for /^Version:/ to find the boot block version, rather than using
the "version" file's RCS id (which is useless for branches).

mrg ed88a6f103 add support for finding kernels other than `netbsd'. the list is:
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..

cache implementations (notably the Hypersparcs).

pk b5d7e8f444 Install a version of the secondary boot block in /usr/mdec that is
suitable for use on a server for diskless booting.  Done mostly to
simplify the installation notes and avoid questions ...

pk 5ba6b94ba6 Do not use KERNBASE to calculate the `end of symbols' location. Instead
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.

mrg 7cedf69cbd Completely rearrange SPARC boot code, modeling it after alpha and hp300
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>.

Many thanks to Gordon Ross and Chuck Cranor for figuring out and testing
the old monitor (sun4) stuff.
