neutrino image

So I’ve been screwing around for a while trying to get an x86 pc-104 cpu
(the ADL MSMP5SEV if anyone cares) to boot off of a floppy with my neutrino
image, and I can’t get it to work.

Maybe someone can help me. So my image buildfile looks like this:

[virtual=x86,bios] .bootstrap = {
startup-bios
PATH=/proc/boot:/bin LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/proc/boot:/lib:/dll
procnto -vvvv
}

[+script] .script = {
pci-bios &
waitfor /dev/pci
devc-con &
reopen /dev/con1

[+session] TERM=qansi PATH=/proc/boot:/bin esh &
}

I copy the image file to the floppy and then I get the following errors upon
bootup of the target system:

unable to start “pci-bios”
cannot access “/dev/pci”
unable to start “devc-con”

…etc.

and then the system hangs.

Am I missing something obvious here?

Thanks much,
Dan Helmick

Hello!

You should add all files you use in build script at the bottom of it,
to make them part of your boot-file.
I added some of them in you “example” script.

[virtual=x86,bios] .bootstrap = {
startup-bios
PATH=/proc/boot:/bin LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/proc/boot:/lib:/dll
procnto -vvvv
}

[+script] .script = {
pci-bios &
waitfor /dev/pci
devc-con &
reopen /dev/con1

[+session] TERM=qansi PATH=/proc/boot:/bin esh &
}

[type=link] /usr/lib/ldqnx.so.1=/proc/boot/libc.so
libc.so

[data=copy]
pci-bios
esh
devc-con

If the PC-104 is not a PC-104 plus your BIOS may not
have a PCI BIOS support, as such you could maybe remove
pci-bios related stuff
