答复: 答复: new config language.

[YhLu]

Ron,

Is there any MB can boot to execute into LinuxBIOS after copying it to RAM?

The _RAMBASE WE use for E7501 is 0x8000, and the FreeBIOS2 default for K8 is
0x4000. How should I set the value to make the LinuxBIOS can boot into
hardwaremain.c.
It seems MB only execute the auto.c and crt0.base and can not jump to the
right address.

Regards

Yinghai Lu

we're working on it. 

There are 3 big efforts going on. First, Eric is working on romcc for K8 
so that it works well. Suse is trying to get it to boot. I am working on a 
new config language which I hope is rich enough to capture the needs of 
freebios2.

Where are we? We are all collectively close. But we're not done.
