how about for now, let's just have initram with its own copy of things, and then let the others link against stage 0 as usual. I've done the 'vector table' approach a fair number of times. It eventually tends to run into trouble as more and more junk gets packed into it. But, we can argue that

This is a simple example how to statically link printk into initram. It grows initram by incredible 2000 bytes here. So yes, this is a solution for now. Signed-off-by: Stefan Reinauer [EMAIL PROTECTED] Index: mainboard/emulation/qemu-x86/Makefile
