One of the many delicacies of LinuxBIOS is that it enters protected mode (32bit mode) after only 17(!) CPU instructions.
Ok, were is it done in LB is entering protected mode a standard procedur of LB.
Yes, this is a standard procedure on all x86 CPUs
I wrote the attached document quite a long time ago. Its not all current but it might help to understand the concept
I would assume it is there anyways, or the FPU is always enabled for the GX1?
Maybe, I have to read the datasheet for FPU
I would not care any further. This part works...
