Hi,
I like this idea. When I just tried to load my multiboot kernel it
failed, though, because of the following piece of code:
+ // XXX: multiboot header may be within the first 8192 bytes,
but header
+ // is only the first 1024
+
+ // Ok, let's see if it is a multiboot image
+ for(i=0; i<(256 - 12); i+=4) { // the header is 12x32bit long
+ if(ldl_p(header+i) == 0x1BADB002) {
I wonder if there is any reason why you didn't just replace the 1024
by
8192 in load_linux but added an XXX. Would this cause any problems I
missed? With this change and replacing 256 by 8192 in the above code
it
works for my kernel, too.
