| H A D | boot0.S | diff 186598 Tue Dec 30 07:57:00 MST 2008 luigi A number of small changes to make the 'save choice to disk' safer, and re-enable it as default. In particular: + re-enable the 'update' flag in the Makefile (of course!); + commit Warner's patch "orb $NOUPDATE,_FLAGS(%bp)" to avoid writing to disk in case of a timeout/default choice; + fix an off-by-one count in the partition scan code that would print the wrong name for unknown partitions; + unconditionally change the boot prompt to 'Boot:' instead of 'Default:' to make room for the extra code/checks/messages. Some of the changes listed below are also made to save space; + rearrange and fix comments for known partition types. Right now we explicitly recognise *BSD, Linux, FAT16 (type 6, used on many USB keys), NTFS (type 7), FAT32 (type 11). Depending on other options we also recognise Extended (type 5), FAT12 (type 1) and FAT16 < 32MB (type 4). + Add an entry "F6 PXE" when the code is built with -DPXE (which is a default now). Technically, F6 boots through INT18, so the prompt 'PXE' is a bit misleading. Unfortunately the name INT18 is too long and does not fit in - we could use ROM perhaps. The reason I picked 'PXE' is that on many (I believe) new systems INT18 calls PXE. Apart from the choice of the name for PXE/ROM/INT18, this should close pending issues on the 1-sector boot0 code and we should be able to move the code to RELENG_7 when it reopens. No boot0cfg changes are necessary. MFC after: 3 weeks |
