[ just back from vacation ] Well, assuming the first namespace is the one you want actually boot from. Which I expect is the common case, but who knows how people use their machines ... IIRC there is some work in progress to add bootorder support for namespaces, where do we stand with that? Once we have this we should be able to extend the skip_nonbootable logic to handle not only controllers but also namespaces. With that we should be able to initialize the correct boot namespaces instead of picking the first namespace. take care, Gerd _______________________________________________ SeaBIOS mailing list -- seabios@seabios.org To unsubscribe send an email to seabios-le...@seabios.org
