Wrong again. boot0 is in the MBR, boot1 and boot2 are the bootstrap; all by Robert. The loader, OTOH, uses Robert's BTX code, Ficl, and a lot of code derived by me from the NetBSD standalone loader. > The BTX loader does have a "prompt" by default and if you interrupt the > countdown. The prompt is, of course, Forth :) The "BTX loader" doesn't have a prompt at all. The kernel loader has a prompt, and the prompt is not written in Forth (yet). -- \\ Sometimes you're ahead, \\ Mike Smith \\ sometimes you're behind. \\ mike@smith.net.au \\ The race is long, and in the \\ msmith@freebsd.org \\ end it's only with yourself. \\ msmith@cdrom.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
