Hi,
after putting some debug statements, it seems the LinuxBIOS resets after the jmp instruction is boot.c ( " jmp *%%eax\n\t" in jmp_to_elf_entry) fails. I am using ETHERBOOT payload with IDE support. Is it because the ram initialization is not proper or something, has anyone experienced this kind of problem.
Any pointers, why it should fail over here.
Here is the extract of the log ...
