7 ! setup.s is responsible for getting the system data from the BIOS,
8 ! and putting them into the appropriate places in system memory.
9 ! both setup.s and system has been loaded by the bootblock.
11 /* we're getting screwed again and again by this problem of the 8259.
12 * so we're going to leave this lying around for inclusion into
13 * crt0.S on an as-needed basis.
14 ! well, that went ok, I hope. Now we have to reprogram the interrupts :-(
15 ! we put them right after the intel-reserved hardware interrupts, at
16 ! int 0x20-0x2F. There they won't mess up anything. Sadly IBM really
17 ! messed this up with the original PC, and they haven't been able to
18 ! rectify it afterwards. Thus the bios puts interrupts at 0x08-0x0f,
19 ! which is used for the internal hardware interrupts as well. We just
20 ! have to reprogram the 8259's, and it isn't fun.

33 outb(0xFF, 0xA1); /*! mask off all interrupts for now*/
34 outb(0xFB, 0x21); /*! mask all irq's but irq2 which is cascaded*/
38 * I like the way Linus says it:
39 ! Well, that certainly wasn't fun :-(. Hopefully it works, and we don't
40 ! need no steenking BIOS anyway (except for the initial loading :-).
