Hello Everyone,
Despite the BIOS information about the nonexistent floppy, the zfsboot.c =
code=20
will prevent to boot from the first HDD if a floppy is given as a first =
available device.
The drive 0x0 (floppy) will be probed before the code below and an error =
occurs:
[=85]
gptzfsboot: error 1 lba 32 =
=20
gptzfsboot: error 1 lba 1 =
=20
[=85]
The continue statement will skip the rest of the iteration because =20
if ((i | DRV_HARD) =3D=3D *(uint8_t *)PTOV(ARGS))=20
is true if the drive equals 0x80. As a result we do not call =
probe_drive()
for this drive.
Eliminating
if ((i | DRV_HARD) =3D=3D *(uint8_t *)PTOV(ARGS)) =20
continue;
would help.
Any comments will be appreciated.
Best Regards,
Christoph
