Hello,
I'm trying to boot Linux on qemu (0.8.2) with LinuxBIOSv2 (svn 2394) and FILO (0.5). I built filo.elf, ran buildtarget emulation/qemu-i386, changed Config.lb to use filo.elf as the payload, and built LinuxBIOS. I then copied the resulting qemu-bios.rom to bios.bin, and started qemu with the -L option to use this bios.bin, and -nographic to use the serial console.
When I try to boot a 2.6 bzImage kernel (using diskboot.img from Fedora), FILO gets as far as "Jumping to entry point..." and then hangs:
-----
qemu -L ~ -hda diskboot.img -m 256 -nographic -no-kqemu -d in_asm,exec

At this point, even qemu becomes unresponsive, so it's hard to figure out exactly what it's doing while running in a tight loop. The last entry in the qemu debug log file is the "Load new stack segment with new GDT" movl instruction in __switch_context:
----- 0x03fe3213: pop %ebx 0x03fe3214: sub $0x106943,%ebx 0x03fe321a: cli 0x03fe321b: mov %esp,%esi 0x03fe321d: sub %ebx,%esi 0x03fe321f: xchg %esi,0x109700(%ebx) 0x03fe3225: add %ebx,%esi 0x03fe3227: movzwl (%esi),%edx 0x03fe322a: mov 0x14(%esi),%eax 0x03fe322d: lgdtl 0x2(%esi) 0x03fe3231: mov %edx,%ss -----
I've also tried an older qemu (0.7.2), an older LinuxBIOS (svn 2302) and an older kernel (2.4.something from Fedora Core 1), all with the same result.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

your problem right now is with filo. Can you try an older one? OR, better yet: if you want to work with me and make linux your boot loader, a la OLPC, that would be better: no filo at all! (not that I don't like FILO, it's wonderful, but Linux as a boot-loader is wonderful-er).
let me know.

Figures, the only part I didn't try downgrading is filo :-)
I would love to use Linux as my boot loader, but is it possible to cram LinuxBIOS plus a kernel and initrd into a puny 256 kByte EEPROM?

Correction: we're using a 1 MByte EEPROM, which I notice is the same size specified for the OLPC.
I'll start digging into the instructions on wiki.laptop.org for building the OLPC LinuxBIOS. Any idea what configuration parameters I'd need to twiddle in emulation/qemu-i386/Config.lb to build the proper size image for qemu?

Change the ROM_SIZE to be 1024*1024 or 0x100000

Here's a patch which makes all "option ROM_SIZE" lines use x*y format which is a lot easier to read and modify, without having to use your brain or a calculator ;-)
Tested with abuild, no errors.

works for me. I put that arithmetic stuff in the parser for this type of usage -- nice to see it used.

Fine with me. As long as we don't go crazy and make the build system require it. It is easier to look at, understand and modify.
Consistency is good.

Richard described how to do this.
Qemu can cope with different sizes of "flash". It can do 64k-512k for sure, but I am not sure about 1M. If it does not work, contact Fabrice Bellard or try to find the lines that read the rom. It should be a minor change.

no, but this is qemu ... can't you grow qemu emulated flash?

Yes, but we plan to eventually run on actual hardware and would prefer to keep the qemu environment as close to the real thing as possible.

Maybe this will help: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?thread_id=10216054&forum_id...

At this point, even qemu becomes unresponsive, so it's hard to figure out exactly what it's doing while running in a tight loop. The last entry in the qemu debug log file is the "Load new stack segment with new GDT" movl instruction in __switch_context:
0x03fe3213: pop %ebx 0x03fe3214: sub $0x106943,%ebx 0x03fe321a: cli 0x03fe321b: mov %esp,%esi 0x03fe321d: sub %ebx,%esi 0x03fe321f: xchg %esi,0x109700(%ebx) 0x03fe3225: add %ebx,%esi 0x03fe3227: movzwl (%esi),%edx 0x03fe322a: mov 0x14(%esi),%eax 0x03fe322d: lgdtl 0x2(%esi) 0x03fe3231: mov %edx,%ss
I've also tried an older qemu (0.7.2), an older LinuxBIOS (svn 2302) and an older kernel (2.4.something from Fedora Core 1), all with the same result.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

So is etherboot mantaining its own copy of FILO now?

Since a while. Yinghai created the possibility to have both filo and etherboot as a payload as far as I can tell. He also added SATA and USB to Filo/Etherboot, which I backported to the "official Filo" that features a lot of other things that Filo/Etherboot does not do (grub menus for example)

Thanks. Just making sure I didn't lose track of where the official FILO was.

Bingo! Works like a charm. Thanks!

Nasty. The Filo IDE driver makes some assumptions about the IDE hw that QEMU does not fulfill.
I am not particularly familiar with that code, but I know the OpenBIOS IDE driver works on QEMU. It might be worth porting that fine driver written by the famous kernel hacker Jens Axboe.
