yes, the kernel was in a known location on disk (directly after the bootsector). the whole boot disk image was generated during build, which is common for small systems.

note that you can switch to long mode directly, without going into protected mode first, with way less code: https://wiki.osdev.org/Entering_Long_Mode_Directly i've had a bootloader for a small 64-bit kernel based on t

thanks! i meant 'cursor-addressing', to avoid the ambiguous term 'tui', which usually (and per https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Text-based_user_interface ) means cursor-addressing, but nominally also in

cursor-addressing uis likely have a higher barrier to entry (both for developers and users), so they are not suffering from the regression to the mean that has made modern guis absolutely unusable. that, and there aren't any "ui&#

so what is the downside to using e.g. dwarf-based stack walking (supported by perf) for libc, which was the original stated problem? in the discussion the issue gets conflated with jit-ted languages, but that has nothing to do with the crus

even though i have the x2100 as a 'fix for x201', which would make sense in the context of the original post, for me it was just a new laptop purchase, and i have considered the x2100 on its own merits as a laptop i could get --

a larger hardware fix for the x200/x201 is the x2100 upgrade (intel comet lake motherboard, nvme, up to 64gb ddr4, 13" 3000x2000 ips panel). see https://www.xyte.ch/mods/x210-x2100/ for an overview, alth
