I think this should change the booting large kernels issue. I've used an=20
ofwboot made with these changes to netboot my Beige G3, and it's been=20
fine. While my kernel is less than 5 MB big, the relocation didn't break=20
anything.

Someone please test bootxx too. Making a boot floppy should do that...

Take care,

Bill

Module Name:	src
Committed By:	wrstuden

Modified Files:
	src/sys/arch/macppc/stand/bootxx: bootxx.c
	src/sys/arch/macppc/stand/ofwboot: Makefile
Removed Files:
	src/sys/arch/macppc/stand/ofwboot: boot1.c

Log Message:
Fix ofwboot to deal with larger kernels. Rather than loading at
0x6?0000, load at 0xe00000. This gives us room for around 13 MB of
kernel, as opposed to the current 5 MB (0x600000 - 0x100000).

No changes to load-base or real-base are needed due to this change,
though machines that needed specific OFW settings before (OF 1.x
and 2.x) this change still need those settings.

Partially revert revision 1.25 -> 1.26 of ofwboot/Makefile & friends.
We do not need to distinguish between where ofwboot and ofwboot.{elf,xcf}
load; they are both fine loading somewhere other than load-base.
