So, I hope I've made the correct calculations, I write them here for future reference:
SMA_SIZE values for different video ram sizes:
10000000b -> 0x80h (2MB/4MB) 10010000b -> 090xh (4MB/8MB) 10100000b -> 0A0xh (8MB/16MB) 10110000b -> 0B0xh (16MB/32MB) 11000000b -> 0C0xh (32MB/64MB) 11010000b -> 0D0xh (64MB/na)
What I don't understand now is the "double" size value (with the 'not supported' value for 0xD0). What does it mean?
Yes. Some of us boot from /dev/hdc using CF, then mount /dev/hda0 as the root device.
Interesting. But, I was asking to myself... how much time does the hard-disk need to spin-up? I've made few tests and it seems quite fast, only few seconds. How much time is it possible to gain with a CF ide device? I have a small CF card, I should buy the CF-IDE adapter, but I have no idea of the advantages it would bring to me.
Thank you for the exceptional work! bye as
