Bootblock Code Checkpoint Codes
| Code | Description |
|
| E0h | Verify the Boot Block BIOS checksum. Disable the |
|
|
| internal cache, DMA, and interrupt controllers. Initialize |
|
|
| the system timer. Start memory refresh. |
|
| E1h | Initialize the chipset registers. Set the BIOS size to 128K. |
|
|
| Make the 512 KB base memory available. |
|
| E2h | Test the base 64 KB of system memory. Send the BAT |
|
|
| command to the keyboard controller. Make sure that |
|
|
| <Ctrl> <Home> was pressed. Verify the main system |
|
|
| BIOS checksum. |
|
| E3h | The main system BIOS is good. Transfer control to the |
|
|
| main system BIOS. |
|
| E4h | Start the memory test. |
|
| E5h | The memory test is over. Initialize the interrupt vector |
|
|
| table. |
|
| E6h | Initialize the DMA and interrupt controllers. |
|
| E7h | Determine the CPU internal clock frequency. |
|
| E8h | Initialize the I/O chipset, if any. |
|
| E9h | Program the CPU |
|
| EAh | Enable the timer and the floppy diskette interrupt. Enable |
|
|
| the internal cache. Copy the boot block BIOS and pass |
|
|
| control to the boot block BIOS in the 0000h segment. |
|
| EDh | Initialize the floppy drive. |
|
| EEh | Look for a diskette in drive A:. Read the first sector of the |
|
|
| diskette. |
|
| EFh | Floppy read error. |
|
| F0h | Search for S759P.ROM in the root directory of the floppy |
|
|
| diskette in drive A:. |
|
| F1h | The S759P.ROM file is not in the root directory. |
|
| F2h | Read the FAT table. Analyze the FAT to find the clusters |
|
|
| occupied by the S759P.ROM. |
|
| F3h | Start reading the S759P.ROM file, cluster by cluster. |
|
| F4h | The S759P.ROM file is not the correct size. |
|
| F5h | Disable the internal cache. Raise the Vpp. Enable Flash |
|
|
| write and reset the Flash ROM. |
|
| FBh | Detect the flash type. |
|
| FCh | Start erasing flash blocks. |
|
| FDh | Program the Flash ROM in the |
|
| FEh | Start programming Flash at |
|
| FFh | Flash programming is successful. The computer reboots. |
