I finally got the Assembly Kernel I developed (with a little help from Antus) working on all targeted PCM's, and this includes the following PCM's,
P01
P04 (512k) AMD
P04 (512k) Intel
P08
P10
P12
P12b
P59 AMD
P59 Intel
E54
And it seems to be rock solid on them all!
And it's time for wider testing and use, time for it to be in the hands of the general public, all my private testers are having ZERO issues and are tired of me asking them to just keep grinding test runs, they are squawking loud a clear that it is working rock solid and it's time to move on.
PLEASE PASS THE WORD! WE NEED LOTS OF TESTING!
All you private testers you can speak up now if you want ... Up to you!
I apologize for not getting this out yesterday as I had stated I would, I am hella sick and puking my guts out, still am but I need to get this out there and being tested by the wider public.
And no I did not leave Kur4o hanging, I PM'd him a test version immediately after saying I was going to post a public test!
Kur4o has always been there for me, I had to reciprocate and be there for him!
Kur4o, Thank you for being there when I needed!
I do have total faith that it will do no harm, however I must remind you that things can go wrong when doing this sort of thing, however, I have done everything in my power to ensure no harm will come to your hardware!
But please don't use this on anything that is really precious to you ... Like your only set of wheels, or your last PCM.
P08's, we do not know all the P08 OsID's, if you hookup to a P08 and it reports it as a P01_P59, that is because it is an unknown to PCMHammer OsID, just post up the OsID and I (or someone) will add it and post a new package ... P01_P59 is the default PCM's.
TESTERS TESTERS TESTERS WE ALL NEED TESTERS! PLEASE DO SOME TESTING!
If you are in the US and have a failure, please let me know, I might be able to help you recover, unfortunately I can only offer this to those here in the states.
MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A GOOD READ BEFORE WRITING! I cannot help with out a good read to recover with!
You wonder what the Assembly Kernel does for the project, well, the C Kernel from Release 21.2 is 7,890 bytes in size, this Assembly Kernel is 1,954 bytes in size and I have NOT been trying to make it small, I know it could lose a couple hundred bytes still yet, but as long as it is under 2048 bytes it is golden!
It would be nice if it was under 1024 bytes, but that is not likely, close though, I think I had it down to 1092 bytes at one point, but it doesn't matter because PCMHammer now uses a Loader Kernel to load the Working Kernel onboard the PCM, this Loader Kernel is only 604 bytes and can be shrunk a few bytes if necessary, but 604 fits all VCI's out there so far in one packet (upload), once the Loader is onboard, we use it to bring on the larger worker Kernel.
-Enjoy
Obviously I know how to check for AMD/Intel
