Or are we just (again) the only platform where (a) physical memory doesn't start at zero and (b) we want to use initrd?
A few archs set initrd_below_start_ok probably because of this. Setting min_low_pfn to some random value, which makes it inconsistent with max_low_pfn isn't the real solution. The real problem is in main.c, it should use virt_to_pfn(initrd_start) for this check and everywhere where min_low_pfn is zero the behaviour is unchanged, so an email to linux-arch should be sufficient, so other archs can check their initrd beheviour and eventually they don't even need the initrd_below_start_ok hack anymore (which should only really be needed if the initrd is e.g. located in a ROM). bye, Roman - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-m68k" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
