>Synopsis: loading kernel overwrites loader during load
>Confidential: no
>Severity: critical
>Priority: high
>Responsible: port-pmax-maintainer
>State: open
>Class: sw-bug
>Submitter-Id: net
>Arrival-Date: Thu Jul 14 21:10:00 +0000 2011
>Originator: Jonathan A. Kollasch
>Release: -current
>Organization:
>Environment:
Architecture: pmax
Machine: pmax
>Description:
The pmax secondary bootloader lives at 0x80710000.
The pmax GENERIC kernel is still smaller than this, (_end is at 806a07a8),
but when /boot loads the symbol table for ddb, it overwrites the executing code.
>How-To-Repeat:
Boot pmax GENERIC kernel using pmax bootloader.
>Fix:
Make the kernel the right size again or move the bootloader up further.
