| | bootsect.s (C) 1991 Linus Torvalds | | bootsect.s is loaded at 0x7c00 by the bios-startup routines, and moves | iself out of the way to address 0x90000, and jumps there. | | It then loads 'setup' directly after itself (0x90200), and the system | at 0x10000, using BIOS interrupts. | | NOTE! currently system is at most 8*65536 bytes long. This should be no | problem, even in the future. I want to keep it simple. This 512 kB | kernel size should be enough, especially as this doesn't contain the | buffer cache as in minix | | The loader has been made as simple as possible, and continuos | read errors will result in a unbreakable loop. Reboot by hand. It | loads pretty fast by getting whole sectors at a time whenever possible. .globl begtext, begdata, begbss, endtext, enddata, endbss .text begtext: .data begdata: .bss begbss: .text SETUPLEN = 4 | nr of setup-sectors BOOTSEG = 0x07c0 | original address of boot-sector INITSEG = 0x9000 | we move boot here - out of the way SETUPSEG = 0x9020 | setup starts here SYSSEG = 0x1000 | system loaded at 0x10000 (65536).
