using the bootstrap loader

CONFIGURING THE FIRST STAGE
The syntax of the macro is
where:
%BIST ( address)
address Address of the CPU board's BIST program. This parameter must be
entered in the form BASE:OFFSET (for example, 1234:5678). To
determine the address of your CPU board's BIST program, refer to the
hardware reference manual for that board.
3.2.2 %COPV Macro (MULTIBUS® II Only)
3-10
The %COPY macro is used with 386/116- and 386/120-based systems. If your system is
not of this type, do not include the %COPY macro in the BS 1MB2.A86 file.
Both iSBC 386/116- and iSBC 386/120-based systems locate EPROM memory at the top
of the 4 gigabyte address space supported by the 803861101 upon reset. However, the first
stage of the Bootstrap Loader must execute within the first megabyte of address space
(real mode). Because the first stage must be repositioned within memory, you must use
the %COPY macro for any application where the EPROM memory is mapped outside of
the first megabyte of address space upon reset.
In contrast, the iSBC 386/2X and iSBC 386/3X systems locate EPROM memory at the top
of the first megabyte of memory space upon reset. Thus, the %COPY macro is
unnecessary.
This macro copies the first stage of the Bootstrap Loader from EPROM devices to the low
megabyte of RAM. You should only specify this macro if you do not have a monitor
installed and the Bootstrap loader executes first upon system reset.
The syntax of the %COPY macro is as follows:
where:
src 10
src hi
dest 10
dest hi
count 10
count hi
The low word of the 24-bit physical source address.
The high byte of the 24-bit physical source address.
The low word of the 24-bit physical destination address.
The high byte of the 24-bit physical destination address.
The low word of the number of bytes in the first stage.
The high byte of the number of bytes in the first stage.
