Re: Booting PilOS

2015-07-07 Thread George Orais
Hi Alex,
Actually i did try to boot this since from your first release but until now i 
still cant make it boot, it pauses for a while then proceed to the default OS 
stored on the hard drive.. Next plan is to build it within the machine i want 
to boot on it.. Btw does Intel or AMD matter on this?

BR,Geo

 Hi all,

today I got the *first* positive feedback of booting PilOS on a physical
machine (i.e. not qemu etc.), from Mattias Sundblad. Thanks again!

Strange that nobody else seems to succeed (or has ever tried?)!
. after quite some hype here about PilMCU and later PilOS.


I'd like to find out reasons why it possibly might not work. Until now I
definitely only knew that it boots on my own Acer TavelMate P-253E, as I
have no other machine to test it on.

Hi Alex,
I tried building them and here is what i get:
* First release: make will generate x86-64.bin* Latest release: make: *** No 
rule to make target `init/.pil/history', needed by `db.bin'.  Stop.
I used pil 3.1.11.1

BR,Geo

I see. So it isn't even recognized as a bootable USB disk.

 Next plan is to build it
 within the machine i want to boot on it.. Btw does Intel or AMD matter
 on this?

I think that currently there is no special dependency on AMD, though I
used only the AMD CPU manuals.

Hi Geo,

thanks for the feedback! :)

 * First release: make will generate x86-64.bin* Latest release: make:
 *** No rule to make target `init/.pil/history', needed by `db.bin'. 

Oops, sorry. My fault! init/.pil/history was added recently, and I
forgot to include it into the release script.

Please download once more pilos.tgz.


 I used pil 3.1.11.1

That's perfect.
