[net.unix-wizards] Info on BSD bootload?

Perrine@LOGICON.arpa (Tom Perrine) (08/04/86)

Can anyone recommend a reference to the 4.2BSD bootload
sequence/methodology? I am looking for something which will
explain things like which program sets up the first SCB,
where the vmunix image is loaded in physical memory, who builds
the first system page table, etc.

Thanks,
Tom Perrine

Many thanks to all the people who were able to help we delve into the
wild wonderful world of the BSD bootload sequence.

To those who wanted a summaray of the responses: Sorry, a user error
(mine) caused me to lose your addresses. Please re-mail to me if you still
want the gory details.

Thanks to all,
Tom Perrine
