John Baldwin <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #2 from John Baldwin <[email protected]> --- Created attachment 144581 --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=144581&action=edit ignore_zero_size.patch This patch is not correct. The '48h' function is always required if EDD is present and is part of the 'Fixed Disk Access' subset as defined in EDD 3.0. The part of the parameter block conditional on the 'EDD' subset returned by '48h' is the DPTE pointer (edd_params_seg and edd_params_off in 'struct edd_params'). The boot code does not use that. In addition, while there is a flag in the 'flags' field (bit 2) that determines if the geometry returned in 'struct edd_params' is correct, that flag only covers the 'cylinders', 'heads', and 'sectors_per_track'. The BIOS is always required to populate 'sectors' and 'sector_size' with valid values. Instead, it seems your BIOS is just broken, but that can be worked around by ignoring sector counts of 0. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-bugs To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
