Sugguestion: command -> instruction? #588

Closed PinoTsao closed 6 years ago

PinoTsao commented 6 years ago

In Kernel booting process. Part 4. section "Calculate relocation address":

When we are using position-independent code an address is obtained by adding the address field of the command and the value of the program counter.

I think the term "command" is confusing, while "instruction" is appropriate, because the address field is embedded in the "instruction", not a command.
