it gave me errors.
but i'm also not sure what could be wrong with this commit!
my first idea was that the commit
"[2215e69d2cf5024647f9a034807990590d25dd4e] x86 boot: use E820 memory
map on EFI 32 platform" is the offender, because the macbook pro
doesn't provide a e820 memory map at all. but bisect showed that i'm
wrong here?!
ELILO is expected to convert the memory map from EFI to e820 format.
I'm using elilo-3.6-ia32.efi provided at the elilo homepage. i wasn't
able to create a working efi toolchain :-(
Does elilo-3.6 already do the converting of the memory map, or not?
EFI32 is likely to be poorly supported, since Apple is likely to be
the only platform to *ever* ship EFI32 in mass production, and it has
a BIOS emulation layer available.
What do you want so say? Does linux support EFI or not?
