Hi Robert,
I'm concerned about your latest commit:
* kern/powerpc/ieee1275/init.c (grub_arch_modules_addr): Skip

the same in grub-mkimage and in the co

How FreeBSD-specific is this? Will the same module apply to other a.out
binaries ? (I ask since you gave
Hi,
This patch add support for a.out kernel, which includes the 4th loader
of BSD system. For example, to start FreeBSD:

Hi,
I was playing around with IDT and needed some code space in startup.S
and in realmode.S. GRUB just hanged for some reason during the bootup
when I just had query instruction for current IDT descriptor and some
