Subject: [PATCH] Documentation/x86: correct real-mode kernel header offset for init_size
Date: Mon, 11 Jul 2011 20:27:40 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <541cf88e2dfe5b8186d8b96b136d892e769a68c1.1310441260.git.dvhart@linux.intel.com> (raw)
The real-mode kernel header init_size field is located at 0x260 per the field
listing in th e"REAL-MODE KERNEL HEADER" section. It is listed as 0x25c in
the "DETAILS OF HEADER FIELDS" section, which overlaps with pref_address.
Correct the details listing to 0x260.
