/** @page x86_bootloader barebox acting as PC bootloader

@section x86_bootloader_features Features

@a barebox can act as a bootloader for PC based systems. In this case a special
binary layout will be created to be able to store it on some media the PC
BIOS can boot from. It can boot Linux kernels stored also on the same boot
media and be configured at runtime, with the possibility to store the changed
configuration on the boot media.

@section x86_bootloader_restrictions Restrictions

Due to some BIOS and @a barebox restrictions the boot media must be
prepared in some special way:

@li @a barebox must be stored in the MBR (Master Boot Record) of the boot media.
    Currently its not possible to store and boot it in one of the partition
    sectors (to use it as a second stage loader). This is no eternal
    restriction. It only needs further effort to add this feature.
@li @a barebox currently cannot run a chained boot loader. Also, this is no
    eternal restriction, only further effort needed.
@li @a barebox comes with limited filesystem support. There is currently no
    support for the most common and popular filesystems used in the *NIX world.
    This restricts locations where to store a kernel and other runtime
    information
@li @a barebox must be stored to the first n sectors of the boot media. To ensure
    this does not collide with partitions on the boot media, the first
    partition must start at a sector behind the ones @a barebox occupies.
@li @a barebox handles its runtime configuration in a special way: It stores it
    in a binary way into some reserved sectors ("persistant storage").

@section x86_bootloader_preparations Boot Preparations

To store the @a barebox image to a boot media, it comes with the tool
@p setupmbr in the directory @p scripts/setupmbr/ . To be able to use it on
the boot media of your choice, some preparations are required:

@subsection x86_bootloader_preparations_partition Keep Sectors free

Build the @a barebox image and check its size. At least this amount of
sectors must be kept free after the MBR prior the first partition. Do this
simple calulation:

	sectors = (\<size of barebox image\> + 511) / 512

To be able to store the runtime configuration, further free sectors are
required. Its up to you and your requirements, how large this persistant
storage must be. If you need 16 kiB for this purpose, you need to keep
additional 32 sectors free.

For this example we are reserving 300 sectors for the @a barebox image and
additionaly 32 sectors for the persistant storage. So, the first partition on
the boot media must start at sector 333 or later.

Run the @p fdisk tool to setup such a partition table:

@verbatim
[jb@host]~> fdisk /dev/sda
Command (m for help): p

Disk /dev/sda: 20.7 MB, 212680704 bytes
16 heads, 63 sectors/track, 406 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 1008 * 512 = 516096 bytes

   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
@endverbatim

Change the used units to @p sectors for easier handling.

@verbatim
Command (m for help): u
Changing display/entry units to sectors

Command (m for help): p

Disk /dev/sda: 20.7 MB, 212680704 bytes
16 heads, 63 sectors/track, 406 cylinders, total 409248 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes

   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
@endverbatim

Now its possible to create the first partition with the required offset:

@verbatim
Command (m for help): n
Command action
   e   extended
   p   primary partition (1-4)
p
Partition number (1-4): 1
First sector (63-409247, default 63): 333
Last sector or +size or +sizeM or +sizeK (333-409247, default 409247): +18M
Command (m for help): p

Disk /dev/sda: 20.7 MB, 212680704 bytes
16 heads, 63 sectors/track, 406 cylinders, total 409248 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes

        Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sda                   333       35489       17578+  83  Linux
@endverbatim

That's all. Do whatever is required now with the new partition (formatting
and populating the root filesystem for example) to make it useful.

In the next step, @a barebox gets installed to this boot media:

@verbatim
[jb@host]~> scripts/setupmbr/setupmbr -s 32 -m ./barebox -d /dev/sda
@endverbatim

This command writes the @a barebox image file './barebox' onto the device
@p /dev/sda.

The @p -s option will keep the persistant storage sectors free and untouched
and set flags in the MBR to forward its existance, size and location to
@a barebox at runtime. @p setupmbr also does not change the partition table.

The @a barebox image gets stored on the boot media like this:

@verbatim
sector 0   1             33                              333
       |---|-------------|--------------- ~~~ ------------|--------------
      MBR    persistant              barebox                 first
              storage               main image              partition
@endverbatim

If the @p -s option is omitted, the "persistant storage" part simply does
not exist:

@verbatim
sector 0   1                              333
       |---|--------------- ~~~ ------------|--------------
      MBR               barebox                 first
                       main image              partition
@endverbatim

@note The @p setupmbr tool is also working on real image file than on device
      nodes only. So, there is no restriction what kind of file will be
      modified.
