Hi all, I'd like to change some OF (Open Firmware) parameters after kernel loading.
You can set the variables stored in nvram by acessing /dev/nvram. There is a tool nvsetenv that allows setting of such variables. I hope paul has incorporated some changes, so it will run on new world machines, too (which have a different nvram layout.) BenH and others told me, that the OF interpreter cannot be reactivated after some other OS has taken control (that would be a cheap way to have a forth interpreter at hand :) Greetings , | | Klaus Halfmann khalfmann@libra.de | | | i | --. r--- -- | Libra Software GmbH Tel +49 (0)621 41997-0 | | b-- | | a-- | Erzbergerstr. 17 Fax +49 (0)621 41997-30 L--- | --- | | .---. 68165 Mannheim ** Sent via the linuxppc-dev mail list.
