Could we be a little more intelligent about this? From: Nate Williams Subject: cvs commit: src/sys/i386/i386 machdep.c nate 96/08/31 19:16:13 Modified: sys/i386/i386 machdep.c Log: If the basemem value supplied by the bootblocks, differs from the value returned by the RTC, use the bootblock supplied value. Also, map the 'stolen by BIOS' memory in the same manner as the ISA-hole memory, since it is really an extenstion of the BIOS. This is necessary for 32-bit BIOS functions such as APM support on laptops, and the loss of memory for non-necessary functions seems to be at most 4k.
