xv6-65oo2/entry.S
Austin Clements 2fc6c35b2f Make the ELF entry point a physical address
This way, the bootloader doesn't have to translate the entry point.
This also makes xv6 multiboot-compliant and follows the convention
used by Linux.

# Using GRUB 2, you can boot xv6 from a file stored in a
# Linux file system by copying kernel or kernelmemfs to /boot
# and then adding this menu entry:
#
# menuentry "xv6" {
# insmod ext2
# set root='(hd0,msdos1)'
# set kernel='/boot/kernel'
# echo "Loading ${kernel}..."
# multiboot ${kernel} ${kernel}
# boot
# }
