ok, no need: the .bss thing is no longer an issue. Here is LAR: normal/stage2/segment0 (191796 bytes, lzma compressed to 110 bytes @0x9500);loadaddress 0x0xb8a0 entry 0x0x2000 normal/stage2/segment1 (32284 bytes, lzma compressed to 17073 bytes @0x95c0);loadaddress 0x0x2000 entry 0x0x2000 normal/stage2/segment2 (6300 bytes, lzma compressed to 431 bytes @0xd8d0);loadaddress 0x0xa000 entry 0x0x2000 Note that stage2 segment 0 is bss! The LAR fix is buying us quite a lot. (that said, decompressing zeros may be a very expensive way to zero-fill a region ...) This leaves me more puzzled, will try more tonight. ron -- coreboot mailing list [email protected] http://www.coreboot.org/mailman/listinfo/coreboot
