| 04:09.08 | jrsharp | hey all |
| 04:09.56 | jrsharp | does anyone know if there's a way to drop to Open Firmware directly from a booted Linux kernel? |
| 04:30.04 | MrBIOS | jrsharp: AFAIK, no, thatâs simply not possible |
| 04:32.30 | jrsharp | MrBIOS: ok... I guess I'm thinking of SPARC/Solaris... Stop-A on the SparcStation drops to OpenFirmware prompt |
| 04:32.41 | MrBIOS | yes, on SPARC you can do stuff like that :) |
| 04:32.43 | jrsharp | was hoping there was a similar path on Linux / PowerPC |
| 04:33.19 | jrsharp | oh well... |
| 04:33.44 | jrsharp | thanks anyway |
| 04:34.17 | jrsharp | I just built a custom kernel (using buildroot) to help facilitate in-system open firmware development/testing... |
| 04:34.40 | jrsharp | it's a tiny kernel that loads an initramfs that has Vim with Forth syntax highlighting |
| 04:34.52 | jrsharp | and support HFS(+) |
| 04:35.15 | jrsharp | so I can edit OF scripts in-system and test them out |
| 04:35.49 | jrsharp | having a means to drop to OF would make that loop slightly tighter, but I can manage without |
