seedres

Seed system resources on x86 platforms

Syntax:

seedres

Options:

None.

Description:

The seedres utility reads the PnP BIOS and assigns resources, such as I/O ports and IRQs, to procnto's resource database. You need it if you want drivers to assign nonconflicting resources.

This utility is for x86 platforms; on other platforms, the startup code seeds the system resources.

Examples:

The following lines from a buildfile show how to start seedres and pci-bios on an x86 platform:
