Hi Myles,
can I remove the patches from the wiki, instead linking to the
respective files in the mailing list archive?
http://www.linuxbios.org/pipermail/linuxbios/
No need to duplicate the information in the wiki if it's already in the
Patches should be kept in the tracker (tracker.linuxbios.org), or
on the
mailing list, until everyone is using the tracker.
Can the tracker pick up patches from the mailing list
automatically? Also, can it send all changes in whatever
is tracked to a mailing list?

The problem I had was when I wanted to use a 64-bit kernel.

No patch needed, just specify -t vmlinux-i386 and it should work.

Aha! linux-ia64 is the only non-i386 type, don't know if that will
work for you though. (I assume linux-i386!=bzimage-i386, maybe
there's a chance it will.)

Please check the build payload for amd64.
It includes: IDE, and SATA(nvidia). And
only 32kbytes left. assume 1Mbytes space, and linuxbios will use
96kbytes.
Todo:
put the kexec tools into the initrd
(32kbytes)
Hope
Good, I will try it with my 2M Rom emulator.
Thanks

s2892
can we make one more generic buildrom and put into tree?
git or svn should be ok.
it should only produce payload only.
How abut call it buildpayload?
We can use Myles Watson's modification as a base.

there is a buildrom tree at openbios.org
use the co command for linuxbios but specify buildrom. actually, the OLPC buildrom is generic enough at this point that we should be abe to use it with few mods. I extended it a bit and all we need is a set of pre-built .config files, one per mainboard,

Thank you very much! I added it to the build tutorial section of the
Documentation page in the wiki.
A 64-bit version may not be that far away. It turns out that mkelfimage
takes the bzImage. I can't test it, though because it doesn't fit in the
ROM. Is there a way to do a fallback only image for the s2892?

Is there a way to do a fallback only image for the s2892?
In your target Config, remove normal section, and only keep the
fallback.
Also in your MB Config.lb, set ROM_SIZE to the same at FALLBACK_SIZE.
(1M)
You can also try to reduce ROM_IMAGE_SIZE
I was hoping that there was a way that I could make LinuxBIOS think therewas a full fallback image, but just have the code to jump to the normal
image included.
just drop the normal image and run fallback-only, would this work for you?
