Hello, The last week hasn't been much productive because of my university exams.
Done: - FAT support removed from the PBS - PBS now reads a block from the disk. The block has (not only) the a.out header for the kernel that will be read. - A new kernel configuration called pctiny builds a kernel that is little enough to fit on a floppy without gzipping. It is being used in my testing disk. - mkdisk is a script that builds a disk file from the pbslba and 9pctiny. Used mainly for testing Next Steps: - I'm having some problems with the data read from disk, I can find it on memory by hand but not programmatically. I'm surely missing something simple, just don't know what. Need to fix it. - Run the read kernel - Write a userland program to replace some 9load functions (prompt for kernel to be booted, read plan9.ini, etc) - Get the kernel to use the above mentioned program Best, iru ps: thanks Devon for the help --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Plan 9 Google Summer of Code" group.
