The <tt>boot.lif</tt> file contains both a bootloader and a kernel.

The <tt>lif32.fs</tt> file contains both a bootloader and an installation

miniroot.

To boot it from the network, a server machine has to be setup so as to

let the hppa machine retrieve it:

the tftp server (relative to <tt>/usr/mdec/rbootd</tt>).

<h3><font color="#0000e0"><strong>Cross-compiling kernels:</strong></font></h3>

<p>

The OpenBSD source tree provides some cross-compilation facilities.

First, a set of hppa cross tools (cross compiler, cross binutils, etc) must

be created:

<pre>

# cd /usr/src

# make TARGET=hppa cross-includes cross-binutils cross-gcc

</pre>

This will build and install the various utilities in <tt>/usr/cross/hppa</tt>.

Note that this step must be run as root, or using

<a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi?query=sudo&sektion=8">sudo</a>.

</p>

<h4>Building boot.lif using cross-tools</h4>

<p>

<ul>

<li>Building <i>mkboot</i>

<p>

mkboot is the only specific host tool needed for the boot.lif build.

<pre>

$ cd /usr/src/sys/arch/hppa/stand/mkboot

$ env MACHINE=hppa make obj

$ env MACHINE=hppa make depend all

</pre>

</p></li>

<li>Building the kernel

<p>

The kernel can be configured as usual, and then built using the cross-tools.

<pre>

$ cd /usr/src/sys/arch/hppa/conf

$ config GENERIC

$ cd /usr/src/sys/arch/hppa/compile/GENERIC

$ export CROSS=/usr/cross/hppa/usr/bin

$ env MACHINE=hppa MACHINE_ARCH=hppa \

AR=$CROSS/ar AS=$CROSS/as CC=$CROSS/cc CPP=$CROSS/cpp LD=$CROSS/ld \

NM=$CROSS/nm RANLIB=$CROSS/ranlib SIZE=$CROSS/size STRIP=$CROSS/strip \

make depend bsd

</pre>

</p></li>

<li>Build boot.lif

<p>With the kernel compiled, the boot loader can now be compiled and the

lif file generated.

<pre>

$ cd /usr/src/sys/arch/hppa/stand

$ export CROSS=/usr/cross/hppa/usr/bin

$ env MACHINE=hppa make SKIPDIR=mkboot obj

$ env MACHINE=hppa MACHINE_ARCH=hppa \

AR=$CROSS/ar AS=$CROSS/as CC=$CROSS/cc CPP=$CROSS/cpp LD=$CROSS/ld \

NM=$CROSS/nm RANLIB=$CROSS/ranlib SIZE=$CROSS/size STRIP=$CROSS/strip \

make SKIPDIR=mkboot depend all

</pre>

</p></li>

</ul>

The final boot.lif file stands in

<tt>/usr/src/sys/arch/hppa/stand/boot/obj/boot.lif</tt>

</p>
