Hi, all. I am a newbie to Linuxe Kernel. I am reading the kernel source about bootstrap in Linux.
I was confused by the boot.s:
/////////////////////////////
mov ax,#BOOTSEG
mov ds,ax
mov ax,#INITSEG
mov es,ax
mov cx,#256
sub si,si
sub di,di
rep
movw
jmpi go,INITSEG
/////////////////////////////
1. What assembly language used in boot.s? Intel Asm or AT&T?
2. Where is the definition of operand movw and jmpi? I cant find it in the Intel Manual.
Please give me some adivices.
Best regards.
