How old is that inhouse mboot.c32 module? Check the src to see if the -solaris flag is incorporated ;)

I had a conversation with the developer to get a more full explanation of what was going on in his application. The developer is using pxelinux to load the comboot module (mboot.c32) which executes the in-house boot loader. The in-house boot loader, therefore, is based on pxelinux. The in-house boot loader executes the following on the mboot.c32 module: Kernel: mboot.c32 Append: -solaris multiboot-solaris-10u7-x86 kernel/unix -B install_media=$ip_addr:$dir,install_config=$ip_addr:$dir - install nowin --- x86.miniroot With this knowledge, it seems to me that the -B boot args are being dropped between mboot.c32 and the OS kernel. So, now the question then becomes 'how do I determine where?' Does all this sound logical or am I blowing smoke out my tailpipe? :) -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ install-discuss mailing list install-discuss at opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/install-discuss
