Introduction - -APB is a bootstrap loader for Alpha processor based systems with -AlphaBIOS firmware. It is primarily intended to be used for booting -Linux, though it may also be useful for free BSD derived systems. - -APB borrows ideas and some code from many places, notably Linux and -other Linux loaders for Alpha systems (aboot and MILO), and the ARCDos -example in the ARC Application Development Kit. APB can also be -linked against zlib to support reading compressed kernel and PALcode -images. See the file CREDITS for details. - - -1. Using APB - -+ Overview - -APB presents a simple command line interface with the following -commands - - boot TARGET boot a target in the configuration file - bootl PALCODE KERNEL ARG1 ... boot Unix - cd DEVICE set the current device - cp | copy FILE1 FILE2 copy files - exit | quit exit to AlphaBIOS - halt | reset system shutdown options - ls | dir list files on the current device - mkdir DIR make a directory - more FILE list a file - mv | rename FILE1 FILE2 rename a file - pwd print the current device - rm | delete FILE delete a file - printenv [NAME] print environment variable(s) - setenv [NAME [VAL]] (un)set environment variable - show targets | devices show information - -At any time an AlphaBIOS is device is selected as the default or -current device. On initialization this is set to the value of the -APB_DEVICE firmware environment variable, or "multi(0)disk(0)fdisk(0)" -(usually the floppy device) if this is not set. - -To change the default device, use the "cd" command. For example - - cd scsi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\os\linux - -sets the default device to be the second partition of the disk 0 on -the 0th SCSI controller. To save this for future invocations, set the -APB_DEVICE firmware environment variable using the "setenv" command: - - setenv APB_DEVICE scsi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\os\linux - -After this you can return to this device using "cd". - -Also the special targets - - cd floppy - cd cdrom - -will take you to the (first) floppy and CD-ROM drives respectively. - -If there is a file system supported by AlphaBIOS on the device -- FAT, -ISO 9660 (CD-ROM) -- then a directory listing can be obtained using -the "dir" or "ls" command: - - apb> ls - Directory listing of scsi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2): - APB.CFG - APB.EXE - LINUX.PAL - VMLINUX - - -+ Booting from disk - -The recommended way to boot a system using APB is set aside a small -(10 - 30 MB) FAT partition on one disk to be used as a boot partition. -The following files should be placed on the boot partition: - - The APB image (APB.EXE) - The PALcode image - The kernel image - An optional configuration file "APB.CFG" (see below) - -Run APB (either from floppy or from the boot partition and use it to -set the environment variable APB_DEVICE to the name of the boot -partition. For example if the boot partition is the first partition -on a SCSI disk with SCSI ID 3 on the first SCSI controller, and the files are in directory \os\linux set APB_DEVICE using - - apb> setenv APB_DEVICE scsi(0)disk(3)rdisk(0)partition(1)\os\linux - -To enable autoboot - - apb> setenv APB_AUTOBOOT 1 - -This performs the first boot command it finds in the APB configuration -file, unless interrupted. - -Otherwise boot manually using a command such as - - apb> bootl palcode kernel [kernel_arg1 [kernel_arg1 ...]] - -or use one of the labels defined in the APB configuration file, for -example - - apb> boot linux - -See below for the configuration file format. - -+ Environment variables - -APB uses the following firmware environment variables to set default -noptions: - - APB_DEVICE Default device for all operations - APB_AUTOBOOT Determines whether an autoboot should be attempted - -If these are not set on invocation, then they are set to reasonable -values, namely - - APB_DEVICE=multi(0)disk(0)fdisk(0) - APB_AUTOBOOT=0 - -+ Configuration file - -APB consults a configuration file "APB.CFG" that is assumed to be -located at the current device path (initially given by environment -variable APB_DEVICE). The file consists of lines that are either -comments, or boot commands prefixed with a mnemonic label. For example - - # This is comment - linux-2.2|bootl linux.pal vmlinux.gz root=/dev/sda3 - linux-2.0|bootl linux.pal vml20.gz root=/dev/sda3 - -In this case, to boot linux-2.2, type - - apb> boot linux-2.2 - -which is equivalent to - - apb> bootl linux.pal vmlinux.gz root=/dev/sda3 - -If the AUTO_BOOT environment variable is set TRUE, then the default -configuration will be booted after 10 seconds, unless a key is -pressed. - -+ Boot devices - -APB can boot from any filesystem supported by AlphaBIOS. At present -these are limited to FAT, NTFS and ISO 9660 (CD-ROM). - -+ Booting from a network device - -Not yet implemented. - - -2. Building APB - -APB is an AlphaBIOS/ARC application. Currently it must be built on an -Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 Alpha processor system, with Microsoft Visual -C++ 5.0 (or higher), the Microsoft Software Development Kit (SDK) and -Device Driver Development Kit (DDK) for NT 4.0, and Compaq ARC -Application Development Kit (ADK) 1.3. - -Optionally, APB can be linked against zlib (a free compression -library) to support reading compressed kernel and PALcode images. - -To build, open a command window, set up the environment: - - VC++ (e.g "C:Program Files\DevStudio\VC\bin\vcvars32.bat") - DDK (e.g. "C:\DDK\bin\setenv.bat C:\DDK") - ADK (e.g. "set ADK=C:\adkv13\adk") - -and then and make using nmake. For example: - - C:\apb-1.0> nmake - -where the DDK has been installed on the C: drive. - -If building with compressed file support, obtain and unpack zlib -(http://www.cdrom.com/pub/infozip/zlib/), set the variable ZLIB to -the zlib directory, and then make. For example - - C:\apb-1.0> set ZLIB=C:\zlib-1.1.3 - C:\apb-1.0> nmake - -In either case, the executable is placed in the "obj\alpha" -subdirectory. - - -3. What APB does - -Booting Linux with APB involves the following steps: - - AlphaBIOS loads and transfers control to APB. - - APB is called with an argument specifying the device (as known to - AlphaBIOS) from which to read the Linux kernel, and additional - arguments to be passed on to the kernel. - - APB sets up the environment for Linux, including loading and - switching to the correct PAL code, setting up the HWRPB, copying - kernel arguments to the right location in memory etc. - - APB reads the Linux kernel image into memory from the specified - device (raw disk initially, and eventually filesystems or network - devices via bootp) and transfers control. - - -4. Modifying APB - -APB has been written with the aim of maintaining platform independence -across all AlphaBIOS (and ARC) systems. Furthermore, all dependence -on the ARC API has been isolated in the file "arc.c", so that porting -to another firmware environment should not be too difficult as long as -it provides a sufficiently complete API. - -Additional user commands can be incorporated through the command -dispatch table in "cmd.c". - diff --git a/tools/alpha/cd/up1000/up1000.pal b/tools/alpha/cd/up1000/up1000.pal Binary files differdeleted file mode 100644 index a47b359f3..000000000 --- a/tools/alpha/cd/up1000/up1000.pal +++ /dev/null diff --git a/tools/alpha/e2fsck.shared b/tools/alpha/e2fsck.shared Binary files differdeleted file mode 100755 index 765e664a1..000000000 --- a/tools/alpha/e2fsck.shared +++ /dev/null |
