boot custom kernel - nulik - 2011-11-09 04:11

I need to boot a custom kernel at certain location in memory, where do I configure the address?
Also what mode does iPXE executes my kernel in? (real mode?)

Sorry, can't find this in the docs.

Thanks in advance.

iPXE can boot various kernel formats, including Linux bzImage and Multiboot. You need to package your kernel in one of these formats.
