Subject: alpha 2.4.11-pre3: fix bootp initrd
Date: Thu, 4 Oct 2001 18:18:53 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20011004181853.A789@dot.cygnus.com> (raw)
>From Jay Estabrook:
At some point the bootp image builder broke wrt initrd.
There is a definition of INITRD_SIZE in <asm/system.h>
that defines how the running kernel gets hold of this
size, which conflicts with the INITRD_SIZE used in the
bootstrap code.
So rename the variable in the bootstrap code.
