Psion 5mx Bootloader for NetBSD
Hello,
I have been trying for a long time to boot NetBSD on a Psion Series 5mx
Pro, but I am stuck at the boot loader stage.
As far as I can tell, the NetBSD/epoc32 port, which lists the 5mx Pro
as supported, needs e32boot.exe (plus the accompanying files) to start
the kernel. The original binaries that KIYOHARA Takashi announced in
2012 at
http://ftp.netbsd.org/pub/NetBSD/misc/kiyohara/epoc32
return a 404 error now. I have found the source in the NetBSD tree
(sys/arch/epoc32/stand/e32boot), but no pre-built binary.
I also tried to build it myself, but without success.
Could anyone help me with one of the following?
A pre-built e32boot.exe (and any required DLLs or other files) that
works on the Series 5mx Pro
A pointer to an archived copy of the original kiyohara/epoc32 directory
If there are any known differences between the 5mx and the 5mx Pro that
affect booting (for example a different e32boot build or settings), I
would be very grateful for a hint. I am happy to share my results and
build notes afterwards so that the documentation can be improved.
Thank you very much for your time.
Best regards
Jörg
