Question about sample mini-kernel in docs

[Mad Hatter]

Hi,

I'm trying to boot with the sample kernel in the docs directory but
not having much success. Here's what happens:
grub> rooot (hd0,0)
grub> kernel /junk
   [Multiboot-elf, <0x100000:-x7a8:0x4018>, shtab=0x105168, entry=0x100000]
grub> boot
... here it just hangs ...

This is on a Dell Optiplex GX1. I built the toy kernel by copying the files
multiboot.h, boot.S and kernel.c to a separate directory and compiled and
linked with:

gcc -I. -Wall -W -fno-builtin -c boot.S
gcc -I. -Wall -W -fno-builtin -c kernel.c
gcc -nostdlib -Wl,-N -Wl,-Ttext -Wl,100000 -o junk boot.o kernel.o

Then I moved 'junk' to /boot. Thanks for any help with this.

Ram
