drochner cbb7aa93f0 from FreeBSD: 
wpaul       1998/07/02 08:36:36 PDT

  Modified files:
    sys/i386/boot/biosboot start.S
  Log:
  Add workaround to allow the FreeBSD boot block to work on
  Kapok Computer Co. notebook with AMI 'WinBIOS' which seems to insist
  on having a short jump and nop as the first instructions in the
  boot sector code. The prevailing theory is that the BIOS is doing
  some sort of boot sector virus detection and refusing to run any
  boot block that doesn't start with the same instruction sequence as
  MS-DOG boot sector code. If this is the case, it would be nice if it
  actually printed an error message to this effect instead of just
  saying 'FAILED.'

  This workaround has no effect on the boot sector code other than to
  increase its size by three bytes.

Cleanup, use definitions from <machine/disklabel.h>

drochner 509f891bd0 -Completely reset the card in EtherStop(), otherwise the next 
open can fail.
-Disable interrupts in the mask register - EP_W0_RESOURCE_CFG is not
  sufficient for PCI cards.

drochner b8cdacb8d5 Redo standalone driver for WD8013 / SMC Ultra boards. 
(The old one was buggy.)
Frontend / backend splitup and most code taken from sys/dev/ic/dp8390.c
and sys/dev/isa/if_we.c.

drochner 4ad496626c Double default fragment table size. For fragmented and / or small 
blocksize filesystems the old default was too small.
 1997-11-07 16:59:41 +00:00
drochner 90e33ee203 When using XMS, use the XMS size returned by the BIOS only if the other 
methods to detect extended memory didn't work well.
(this XMS size is always too small, typically by 68k)
 1997-11-03 18:06:22 +00:00
fvdl d2016e2df0 Disable interrupts when frobbing the keyboard controller for A20, as 
it may generate a reset on some (older) controllers. Introduce a delay
to make some kbd controllers happier.

drochner e14496efb8 Ignore BIOS partition table and disklabel for floppys and RAW_PART, 
for consistency with the kernel.

drochner 041680f614 don't forget to save the partition number for the kernel 1997-09-20 12:17:41 +00:00
drochner 9b4679d869 -Don't pass hardware address, it is not of much use for the kernel. 
-define "addr" differently for ISA and PCI devices - for PCI, it is
 (bus,device,function) now, in the format used by the PCI BIOS
 1997-09-20 12:13:01 +00:00

drochner f93967e407 add new files 1997-09-17 17:51:12 +00:00
drochner dae95d6c0b -extend serial console code to all 4 BIOS known interfaces 
-optionally, use Martin's direct hardware access to serial lines
-optionally, new console autoselection method: select serial console
 if a character is seen within 1 second
-move awaitkey() here, it can be shared by different bootloaders and
 it is used by console autoselection
-collect information about console selection in a "bootinfo" defined
 structure, for passing to the kernel
 1997-09-17 17:48:00 +00:00

loader (still experimental).
 1997-09-17 17:39:29 +00:00

Allows higher baudrates than 9.6 and software flow control.
From Martin Husemann.
 1997-09-17 17:31:41 +00:00
drochner 27d7edd928 Factor out functions for table driven boot menus and command line parsing 
usable for different boot programs.

hannken a44c1f66a7 Change "it's" to "it is" inside assembler comments to 
stop "unterminated character constant" messages from `mkdep'.
 1997-08-18 22:44:01 +00:00
drochner 80a5032beb Make new memory detection default. 
Introduce a new option, "CONSERVATIVE_MEMDETECT", which disables the
new BIOS calls.
 1997-08-14 17:00:18 +00:00
drochner c4af2e3042 Build the new memory detection stuff. 1997-08-14 15:40:28 +00:00
drochner a6d6ef3a20 Use traditional memory detect function (int15/88) as indication for 
a XMS driver.
From Martin Husemann.
 1997-08-14 15:28:47 +00:00
drochner 2092d92ef2 New, optional, method to get size of extended memory. 
It will be used for getextmem() if EXTENDED_MEMDETECT is defined.
Worked on all tested machines.
Thanks to all testers, especially Martin Husemann!

drochner 23fd5d0d9b #if -> #ifdef, fixes XMS support 
from Martin Husemann, pr port-i386/3941
 1997-08-05 10:27:57 +00:00
drochner bdb232d2b6 Don't use <lib/libsa/if_ether.h> anymore. This was a copy of the 
old (before ARP changes) <netinet/if_ether.h>, intended for
temporary use.
 1997-07-22 17:41:01 +00:00
drochner 6b02672ee8 Cleanup include file usage: Avoid user space headers, use 
<sys/types.h> instead of <sys/param.h> where possible.
 1997-07-15 12:45:22 +00:00
drochner d6a6f815ee Add boot ROM support for 3c905 TX ethernet card. 1997-07-15 11:23:04 +00:00
drochner e19d907613 Support SMC Ultra. 
The code is becoming messy...
 1997-06-21 14:43:11 +00:00
drochner faf30015a9 Support 3c900 Combo. 
(The elink3 code works probably with other boards too, but this is what
I tested.)
 1997-06-21 14:41:13 +00:00
drochner cc7a41e5d2 Weaken the restrictions on the device file name a bit: /boot can 
now be installed on any partition.
Allow PRIM_LOADSZ to be set in the Makefile.
This together allows to make bootable 720k floppys.
closes PR port-i386/3751
 1997-06-19 11:46:44 +00:00
drochner a0d9d3bc54 Allow to boot from DOS if a XMS manager is installed. 
XMS is recognized and used as temporary buffer for the kernel image.
The processor must still be in real mode at program start, so EMM386
or QEMM are not allowed. W*95 is OK.
Written by Martin Husemann (pr port-i386/3336).
Completely separated from other bootloaders for sanity.
 1997-06-13 17:49:22 +00:00
drochner d0bb0480b7 Remove bzero() prototype, it goes into libkern.h. 1997-06-13 13:45:50 +00:00
