InitRD #13

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
initRD code is under evaluation for inclusion..

we dont really need one if GRUB can boot us. And RESCUE GRUB DISK can find a 
LOT to boot from.....

this is to pre-init hd access code and such as usb drivers...why not include 
them in the kernel to begin with and solve this problem?

This is a good start for implementing FAT/VFS access to other partition types, 
will re-evaluate this after i match the C code with what should be written in 
FPC. I have code to access the hard drive, I just havent gotten that far yet.

Paging and tasking need to settle first.
