Yeah, I know... Some things that may help though. I have put some print statements into src/lib/elfboot.c into get_bounce_buffer(): Here is the response from original bios: --------------------------------- Try to load at offset 0x0 mem_entries=3 buffer=0 i= 0 buffer=0 &buffer=1244c i= 1 buffer=0 &buffer=1244c map_type=1 mstart=6c4 msize=653628 buffer=0 mend=a0000 tbuffer=35e8 i= 2 buffer=35e8 &buffer=1244c map_type=1 mstart=100000 msize=99614720 buffer=35e8 mend=6000000 tbuffer=5f635e8
--------------------------------- And here is the version I've got from your patch: --------------------------------- Try to load at offset 0x0 mem_entries=2 buffer=0 i= 0 buffer=0 &buffer=124ac i= 1 buffer=0 &buffer=124ac map_type=1 mstart=6b0 msize=-1712 buffer=0 mend=0 tbuffer=fff63528
--------------------------------- Take a look at the tbuffer. Address is incorrect. Some memory allocation issue which makes impossible to get correct address for the filo elf image. I give up for now. Dmitry/

Another alternative is to debug the existing problem. You can't always get everything you want without effort :^).
