Announcing Rip'Em, a third-party firmware for the HP Prime

<< < (2/2)

Hooloovoo:
Is there a way to get past the 1Mb limit in PRIME_OS.ROM? I have a project which would really stand some more code space.

Jean-Baptiste Boric:
Currently no, since Rip'Em can't access the NAND so it's limited by the 1 MiB that BXCBOOT0.BIN loads.

However, with the recently-created, QEMU-based emulator (https://github.com/Gigi1237/qemu) I can now rewrite Rip'Em to include such functionality. If you can use the emulator, you can use its -kernel option to load large ELF files (limited by RAM capacity).

Hooloovoo:
Ah, good to know. I have been using it and fixing some things on the emulator, and my branch I think does interrupts well enough to run the OS. I'm not sure how exactly the rest of the OS is loaded.
I hadn't been using the -kernel option, but I'll definitely start.
