I'm reading the code /usr/src/sys/boot/i386/boot0/boot0.s. And i've found that the FreeBSD Boot Manager is really smart & cool. But i've got some problems in this source code. I got puzzled from this line: cmpb cmpb NHRDRV,%al. I don't know what it's for and got no idea about the following code either. Could anyone give me hint a point? Or any resources where i could get more info? Thanks. _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
