; disk booting routines ; these are only used during booting, they are not exposed via the jump table ; read disk 0 and attempt to figure out what type of disk it is, and load the correct binary into memory ; inputs: ; r0: disk size (bytes) ; outputs: ; none (doesn't return) start_boot_process: ; r0 contains the size of the disk in bytes ; divide the size by 512 and add 1 to get the size in sectors div r0, 512 inc r0 mov r31, r0 mov r0, 0 ; sector counter mov r2, 0x00000800 ; destination pointer mov r3, 0x80003000 ; command to read a sector from disk 0 into memory mov r4, 0x80002000 ; command to set the location of the buffer ; first, check to see if this is a FAT-formatted disk out r4, r2 ; set the memory buffer location out r3, 0 ; read sector 0 into the buffer cmp.8 [r2], 0xEB ; check for an x86 jmp instruction, indicating a possible FAT volume ifz jmp start_boot_process_fat cmp.8 [r2], 0xE9 ; check for an x86 jmp instruction, indicating a possible FAT volume ifz jmp start_boot_process_fat start_boot_process_raw_binary_sector_loop: out r4, r2 ; set the memory buffer location out r3, r0 ; read the current sector into memory inc r0 ; increment sector counter add r2, 512 ; increment the destination pointer loop start_boot_process_raw_binary_sector_loop jmp start_boot_process_done start_boot_process_fat: ; start_boot_process_done: ; done loading !!! ; now clean up and jump to the loaded binary call boot_cleanup jmp 0x00000800 ; clean up the system's state before jumping to the loaded binary ; inputs: ; none ; outputs: ; none boot_cleanup: ; clear the background mov r0, BACKGROUND_COLOR call fill_background ; disable the menu bar call disable_menu_bar ret
