a-f segments cause errors in memtest, and fixed region configs are possibly not set right. http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/98
Ron and I discussed this. I have the fix for this in my private linuxbios tree. I've marked the entire area as RAM. I'll probably test it tomorrow evening or Thurs at Boston. ===============
e820 map incorrectly excludes most of range 0xa0000-100000 http://dev.laptop.org/ticket/97
Ron and I looked at this. Its not that its specifically excluded but its not specfically included either. The default action of Memtest 86 would have been to exclude these ranges but when it sees that its running under linuxbios it willl go ahead and test it _unless_ its excluded. If ticket 98 works as expected then 97 will just "Work". =============== Ticket #143. See my comments on the tracker. I know exactly what the problem is and its an easy fix. Will fix when I'm at Boston at the end of this week. ================ RE: FC6 linuxbios build issues. Segher Boessenkool is here at LinuxBIOS 2006. He is a GCC maintainer. In fact as he sits next to me right now he is reviewing proposed gcc patches. I've been discussing our FC6 toolchain problems. He has agreeed to look at our FC6 problem. What he tells me he needs are tarball(s) of the build with object files for FC5 and FC6. I have access to a FC5 machine but not FC6. -- Richard A.
