# Bootable image that:
# - loads more sectors past the first boot sector (using BIOS primitives)
# - switches to 32-bit mode (giving up access to BIOS primitives)
# - as an example program, prints a letter from the second sector to the top-left of the screen (by writing to memory-mapped VGA memory)
#
# If the initial load fails, it prints 'D' to the top-left of the screen and
# halts.
#
# To convert to a disk image, first prepare a realistically sized disk image:
# dd if=/dev/zero of=disk.img count=20160 # 512-byte sectors, so 10MB
# Now fill in sectors:
# ./bootstrap run apps/hex < apps/boot.hex > boot.bin
# dd if=boot.bin of=disk.img conv=notrunc
# To run:
# qemu-system-i386 disk.img
# Or:
# bochs -f apps/boot.bochsrc # boot.bochsrc loads disk.img
#
# Since we start out in 16-bit mode, we need instructions SubX doesn't
# support.
# This file contains just hex bytes and comments. Zero error-checking. Make
# liberal use of:
# - comments documenting expected offsets
# - size checks on the emitted file (currently: 512 bytes)
# - xxd to eyeball that offsets contain expected bytes
## 16-bit entry point
# Upon reset, the IBM PC
# loads the first sector (512 bytes)
# from some bootable image (see the boot sector marker at the end of this file)
# to the address range [0x7c00, 0x7e00)
