2017-06-09 | tried to probe disk geometry with mixed success (emulated FDD mode | Andreas Baumann | |
on USB not working). Code in stage1 gets too complex to fit 512 bytes, so we most likely must load stage2 with a simple algorithm (maybe 8 sectors every bios 13h/2h function is able to deliver). Then we load the kernel in a second, more complex loading step | |||
2017-06-09 | fixed stage 1 boot loader problems (worked in some BIOSes across | Andreas Baumann | |
the 2 times sector/track limit). loading sectors one by one now fixed also spin down problem after loading stage 2 and the kernel for now tested with 1.44 MB floppies (both real and in bochs/qemu) |
