RE: [Etherboot-users] Bios 32 error while booting

[Timothy L. <tim...@al...>]

cd etherboot-5.4/src
grep -r DCONFIG_PCI_DIRECT *

It returns:

arch/i386/Config:#      -DCONFIG_PCI_DIRECT
arch/i386/Config:#CFLAGS+=3D -DLINUXBIOS -DCONFIG_TSC_CURRTICKS
-DCONSOLE_SERIAL
-DCOMCONSOLE=3D0x3f8 -DCOMPRESERVE -DCONFIG_PCI_DIRECT -DELF_IMAGE
arch/i386/Config:# CFLAGS+=3D     -DCONFIG_PCI_DIRECT

uncomment one of the lines (remove the #) containing -DCONFIG_PCI_DIRECT
=20
grep is your friend...
