AW: loadbsd memory segment (Was: NetBSD Amiga - Memory restrictions)



Hi guys,

just to bring this back in mind:)

1. We need a kernel without this stupid 384 MB Tasklimit :)
2. We need to change the bootloader! It should use the memory with the
highest priority instead of the largest available block.

I have Zorro III RAM with 512 MB RAM and the kernel actually loads in this
slow 512 MB instead of the 128 MB Ram of my Cyberstorm MKII

@Frank Wille your new loadbsd works with the TK-RAM but the 512 MB Z3 Ram is
ignored completely as I mentioned some months ago. Could you have a 
Look in it?

Thanks

Harald

Thanks a lot for testing and feedback! I have just committed the loadbsd
V3.3 sources and the updated uuencoded distribution binary (kindly compiled
by Roc Vallés with Bebbo's gcc6).

Maybe somebody reading this is able to provide such a kernel. I would need
to do a lot more research, and I don't know when I find the time for that.
