New in 0.7:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Problems in cross-compiling PUPA are fixed.
|

|
|
|
* Use -mrtd and -mregparm=3 to reduce the generated code sizes. This
|
|
|
|
|
means that any missing prototypes could be fatal. Also, you must take
|
|
|
|
|
care when writing assembly code. See the comments at the beginning of
|
|
|
|
|
startup.S, for more details.

|
|
|
* New utility, ``pupa-setup''. This sets up PUPA to make it bootable
|
|
|
|
|
from a real disk.
|
|
|
|
|
|
2003-01-06 00:01:35 +00:00
|
|
|
* New commands, "prefix", "insmod", "rmmod" and "lsmod" are added into
|
|
|
|
|
the rescue mode to manipulate PUPA modules.
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
* Linux support is added. Initrd is not support yet.

|
|
|
* Reduce the size of a core image significantly by compressing a large
|
|
|
|
|
part of the core image and decompressing itself at boot time. The
|
|
|
|
|
currently used algorithm is LZO (more precisely, LZO1X-999). So you
|
|
|
|
|
have to install LZO to build PUPA. See
|
|
|
|
|
<http://www.oberhumer.com/opensource/lzo/>, for more information.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The chainloader and the FAT filesystem are modularized.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* The structure of the source tree is a bit changed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Support for building loadable modules is added.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Some generic parts of pupa-mkimage are segregated.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Some documentation files are added, according to the GNU Coding
|
|
|
|
|
Standards.
