Hello All, Thanks for the explanations on "yaboot", what I understand here is that 'yaboot' dosent have most of the platform specfic code to execute from "poweron" state and instead dependes on OpenFirmware to do it.
OpenFirmware does the platform initializations ( SDRAM init, Stack setup, North Bridge - South Bridge initializations, PCI, IDE controller setup etc ) and gives control to 'yaboot' In turn this 'yaboot' code will read the Master Boot Record from Hard Driver or CD Driver and boot Linux OS. I am not sure if my understanding is still correct. Warm Regards, Raghu. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
