the video mode on machines with ancient or no video cards is not clear,
for safety's sake a I created a new biosboot variant, biosboot_resetvideo
that does the call.
Anyway, now I can boot my i-opener without hitting Tab. Thanks Andrew!
with different flags from dosboot and biosboot. Although right now this
does not make a difference because we are building the libraries twice,
it can make a difference when we share the builds.
loadfile.h contains macros that are supposed to be MD, but loadfile.c is now MI.
Fixes:
- a.out support
- pass information values via an array not global variables
- don't assume that you can access memory directly.
- remove MD parts
- remove some printfs.
XXX: loadfile.c needs to be moved somewhere where other ports can use it.
XXX2: read() routines on the i386 don't appear to set errno on failure.
little hacking by me. This isn't strictly identical to his 920312
release -- I've hacked it a bit -- but since we are taking over change
control it doesn't matter much.
