about BOOT_IDE
by Terry B. Chen 09 Apr '03

09 Apr '03

Dear all: I decide to elf_boot use BOOT_IDE, because the rom is too small to settle a big kernel that support. Can some one tell me the usage of the options such as ONE_TRACK and how to put the elf to hard disk, I think it must be dangerous, it seem to read the sector directly. Someone can teach me a little? Best regards Terry chen

Warnings while building the Small C compiler that Eric designed
by Gregg C Levine 09 Apr '03

09 Apr '03

Hello again from Gregg C Levine On my Linux box, which is using Slackware 8.0, along with the reasonably current tool chain for that release, I downloaded the Small C compiler that Eric designed. I then extracted the files, and ran the make program, inside its directory. During the build process, it threw up a series of warnings, nothing threatened the executable which was built so they did not accumulate into the classic error messages that do that. Anyway I've attached a script file … [View More]

Burning BIOS on FLASH ROMS, is the kernel also needs to burnt on it
by Deepak Kotian 09 Apr '03

09 Apr '03

HI, Looking at the burn mtd script, it seems that the linux kernel image also needs to be burnt on the BIOS flash along with linuxbios.In this case, if the customized kernel image is around 900KB ,then it may be difficult to fit it on the FLASH ROMS which is usually 2-4MBit. Is there a way to boot it from IDE device itself instead of the above process. Could some please clarify on this. Thanks and Regards Deepak

I stand corrected, Richard is right. You may find a CF on IDE adapter is your best choice Deepak.

Once again it is time for me to sync up my tree with the public LinuxBIOS tree. I should do this more often. But anyway...
