hello

has anybody some deeper experience with boot-eproms and the netboot
FreeBSD-code ? - my problem is that i want to make a boot prom for a
smc-elite 16 plus card - the docs say: the chip is 27512 and the rom
window size is 16k - but the 27512 is a 64k chip - now my question -
is it possible to burn the standard FreeBSD boot-rom code (which is
16k by default and will fail with ROMSIZE set to 64k - due to a .word
ROMSITE in start2.S) into the 64k eprom or can i use 16k eproms
(27128) in the smc-elite 16 plus card ?

thanks in advance
