bug in CEPC boot loader!!!!
Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry
This is a sanity check that I am not crazy!
In main.c of SBOOT I see this
pBootArgs = (BOOT_ARGS *) ((ULONG)(*(PBYTE
*)BOOT_ARG_PTR_LOCATION_NP));
This gets a pointer to the boot arguments but the boot arguments
*pointer* was not intialized anywhere in the code!!!
Here is what you see in ROMBOOT or BIOSLOADER this is what you see and
I think this is how it should be in SBOOT and EBOOT
((ULONG)(*(PBYTE *)BOOT_ARG_PTR_LOCATION_NP)) = BOOT_ARG_LOCATION_NP;
pBootArgs = (BOOT_ARGS *) ((ULONG)(*(PBYTE
*)BOOT_ARG_PTR_LOCATION_NP));
Can someone tell me if I am crazy?

... You are forgetting that it is indeed the first phase loader ROMBOOT, BIOSLOADER or LoadCEPC that is initializing the pointer at the location BOOT_ARG_PTR_LOCATION_NP. ... EBOOT, SBOOT or whatever you are using as a 2nd phase loader just gets the pointer stored in this location to GET the boot arguments that are passed by ROMBOOT, BIOSLOADER or LoadCEPC. ...
