Hi Werner:<br>i am the new software engineer live in Beijing. <br><br>when i google KBOOT <br>the first web is <a href="http://kboot.sf.net" target="_blank">kboot.sf.net</a> : )<br>and i read you plan carefully and i started to make my own plan base on this <br>
<br>if we focus on the freerunner or both of freerunner and neo1973?<br>---------------<br><br>Werner wrote:<br>>So the boot process with kboot is as follows:<br><br>>- firmware initializes the basic hardware<br>>- first-stage boot loader loads the kboot Linux system (kernel with<br>
initramfs)<br>>- kboot decides what to do and retrieves the files necessary<br> (kernel, initrd, etc.)<br>>- kboot uses kexec to boot the real system<br><br>so my first step is study the first-stage boot loader,<br>
and modify the first-stage boot loader to boot the kboot!<br>
and second step is modify the kboot to Initialize neo hardware! <br><br>may be you can give me some advice about study first-stage boot loader.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Apr 24, 2008 at 4:31 PM, Werner Almesberger <<a href="mailto:werner@openmoko.org" target="_blank">werner@openmoko.org</a>> wrote:<br>
