Architecture: [i386]

  1 !
  2 ! SYS_SIZE is the number of clicks (16 bytes) to be loaded.
  3 ! 0x3000 is 0x30000 bytes = 196kB, more than enough for current
  4 ! versions of linux
  5 !
  6 SYSSIZE = 0x3000
  7 !
  8 !       bootsect.s              (C) 1991 Linus Torvalds
  9 !
 10 ! bootsect.s is loaded at 0x7c00 by the bios-startup routines, and moves
 11 ! iself out of the way to address 0x90000, and jumps there.
 12 !
 13 ! It then loads 'setup' directly after itself (0x90200), and the system
 14 ! at 0x10000, using BIOS interrupts. 
 15 !
 16 ! NOTE! currently system is at most 8*65536 bytes long. This should be no
 17 ! problem, even in the future. I want to keep it simple. This 512 kB
 18 ! kernel size should be enough, especially as this doesn't contain the
 19 ! buffer cache as in minix
 20 !
 21 ! The loader has been made as simple as possible, and continuos
 22 ! read errors will result in a unbreakable loop. Reboot by hand. It
 23 ! loads pretty fast by getting whole sectors at a time whenever possible.
