| Plan 9 from Bell Labs kernel images require additional setup to pass |
| configuration information to the kernel. An environment variable named |
| confaddr must be defined with the same value as CONFADDR (see mem.h). |
| Use of this facility is optional, but should be preferable to manual |
| When booting an image, arguments supplied to the bootm command will be |
| copied to CONFADDR. If no arguments are specified, the contents of the |
| bootargs environment variable will be copied. |
| If no command line arguments or bootargs are defined, CONFADDR is left |
| uninitialized to permit manual configuration. For example, PC-style |
| configuration could be simulated by issuing a fatload in bootcmd: |
| # setenv bootcmd fatload mmc 0 $confaddr plan9.ini; ...; bootm |
