21:33:28 <gitomat> [illumos-gate] 17875 loader: tftp_open() should avoid adding double '/' at front of the path -- Toomas Soome <tsoome⊙mc>
21:37:16 <gitomat> [illumos-gate] 17874 loader gzipfs: directory names are not compressed -- Toomas Soome <tsoome⊙mc>
23:05:11 <jbk> tsoome: do you recall any specific around why (or which systems) had issues with using memory > 4GB for the ramdisk or boot archive?
23:06:05 <richlowe> dboot can't see it? 
23:08:59 <jbk> the comments surrounding it suggested it wasn't dboot (though maybe that is a problem?) but that some systems seemed to have a problem with it..
23:10:29 <jbk> after too many other issues, I was trying to get back to this dell amd box
23:12:45 <jbk> https://pastebin.com/wG54CsLB is what the memory map looks like, though I'm not sure of that's page#s or actual addresses
23:14:33 <jbk> (assumign addresses, if I'm counting my digits correctly, it looks like the largest chunk of available memory within the first 4GB of the address space is a  ~480MB chunk
23:20:48 <jbk> I'm going to try lifting that restrction in loader to test -- but even if it does work, then the question is what systems (if any are still around) need the restriction?
23:21:07 <jbk> the comment comes from illumos#8139
23:56:09 <jbk> hrm.. progress (a bit)
23:56:43 <jbk> but now multiboot thins no rootfs module is provided..
23:56:53 <jbk> my adventure for tomorrow afternoon...
