That may be true (that is going to fail) for entry point address, but please note that many kernels have the entry point and bootstrap code in a section/segment with virtual == physical, but then setup address translation and jump to another sections/segments with virtual != physical addresses. _______________________________________________ Bug-grub mailing list Bug-grub@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-grub
