Message-ID: <20001015193525.B15323@hiro.netizen.com.au> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline User-Agent: Mutt/1.2i X-Message-Flag: Fish. Sender: owner-freebsd-ppc@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Ok, my loader's now up to putting up a prompt. It probes disks partially but can't boot from them yet. Forth isn't tested yet, due to some linker problems in NetBSD (which I'm using as my build platform) that I haven't hacked my way around yet. I've also had to disable the end guard in libstand's malloc/free as it was always triggering. I haven't hit any problems yet, but I hope to be able to re-enable it in the near future. Thanks to Stephane Potvin for the some of the code in this set. The patches are available at: http://jeamland.net/ppc-ofw-loader.tar.gz -- Benno Rice "No, no.
