Change 21434 by marcel@marcel_nfs on 2002/11/23 15:44:00

	Bump the version of the loader to 1.0 because we now don't
	map the I/O port space. This breaks previous kernels that
	depend on it. Use version 1.0 instead of 0.4 because it
	looks better for released software :-)
	This change does not break a regular upgrade path where a
	new kernel is installed prior to a new loader.

 NOTE ANY CHANGES YOU MAKE TO THE BOOTBLOCKS HERE.  The format of this
 file is important.  Make sure the current version number is on line 6.
 
+1.0:	Don't map the I/O port range. We expect the kernel to do it. It
+	was done in the loader as a debugging aid and not intended as a
+	service/feature.
 0.3:	Pass the physical address of the bootinfo block in register r8
 	to the kernel. Continue to put it at the fixed address for now.
 0.2:	Much improved version. Significant is the support for passing
