...S as a (readonly) disk drive using standard BIOS or EFI interfaces (hpa suggestion). This suggestion looks very promising. It probably requires some changes in the BIOS. I'm not sure if it requires changes in the bootloader. There is one potential problem I see: the bootloader is stored on some flashrom chip and the Linux image is stored on a different storage device. I think that right now the bootloader assumes they are stored on the same storage device. Am I wrong? If I'm wrong, how do I tell the bootloader to load the Linux image from a different storage device? 2) The ROMOS project (Serg...

To make say a BIOS flash tool available over PXE, my impression is that a typical procedure goes like this: modify a generic FreeDOS 1440K disk image to contain the EXE and change the AUTOEXEC.BAT to launch that EXE, then make the 1440K IMG available on the PXE server. But more recent BIOS flash EXE are too large and won't fit on the 1440K, not even 3840K, so now we have to look into

...ace called the 'nowind' interface (http://nowind.nl/) It is actually a MSX2-compatible cartridge that from the MSX2 perspective appears to be a diskdrive, but actually the 'disk' is a disk-image file on the PC. The host-software is written in c++98 and the z80-software (residing in flashrom) is written in z80-assembly, which I mastered quite well back then. So why am I telling you this? I would like to get some pointers on how to get started. My development environment is currently windows, but if there is any advantage in switching to linux, that is also fine. I have gcc/gdb experi...

Given that I have a machine with possibly multiple disks, each of which is bootable(has an MBR).... Is there a command that will query the BIOS and tell me which disk is the default boot disk. BTW - this is x86. The goal is to remotely reboot the workstation into the desired disk(which contain different centos versions). tia, -Mark -- Mark Belanger LTX Corporation

Hello everyone, I'm unable to read temperature Gigabyte H77-DH3H motherboard. Is that motherboard supported or am I doing it incorrectly? When trying to access hw.acpi.thermal everything appears to be ok, but it is not, the system always returns 27,8C and 29,8C which fooled me initially - the values never change. Here is output: [chinatsu]:/root# sysctl hw.acpi.thermal
