Howdy, Please pardon the trip down memory lane, but I'm running into a problem booting multiboot from non-pxegrub boot loaders and could use some help.
When using gGPXE (the new Etherboot) to boot multiboot on a Sun X4200 M1, I get the following message: remapping page at 0x1000000 panic: remapping unsupported in booter The gPXE/multiboot combination does work on a Dell 2950, a Rackable, and a VMware ESX VM, however. I get the same error when booting multiboot from Linux's kexec() system call on a Dell 2950. >From the source (http://cvs.opensolaris.org/source/xref/onnv/onnv-gate/deleted_files/usr/src/psm/stand/boot/i386/common/memory.c#160): /* * If we are already mapped, panic! * This should not happen under the * current memory allocation scheme * where physmem is either mapped 1:1 * or mapped above kernelbase. */ Could someone who knows the (old) boot process a little better please help me understand what the memory mapping requirements for multiboot are?
