Hey Dave Use Bochs emulator. Set the RAM to how much ever your target machine has, and use an elks image and see if it works. iF it works on this setting, it should work on your target hardware as well. Vikas On 5/15/06, Dave Mills <dave@xxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:
Hi, I'm planning to fiddle with ELKS on an 8086 system at some time in the near future. The system has very minimal RAM (~200k). Does anyone have any idea (or even better, experience) about ELKS in such a low RAM configuration? I realise that I'll probably not get much more than the kernel booting, as other software running will require more RAM than I have. Getting to the stage where ELKS boots and my application prints "I'm alive!" over the serial port is my first target. cheers, Dave - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-8086" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
