Hello Mr.Bin,

 In the latest U-boot-x86 version I am seeing some error messages when
I enable the debug messages in the bios.c file.

I am checking the VESA driver initialization and it seems that for a
particular functional call it takes more time to process.
    realmode_call(addr + 0x0003, num_dev, 0xffff, 0x0000, 0xffff, 0x0,
0x0);  -- it takes around 2 seconds. Do you have any idea how to
optimize this function call or why it is taking that much time.

I tried to enable the debug messages to understand what is happening
and found that there are some software interrupts that are not
supported

[0.325805 0.002018] Real mode stub @600: 919 bytes

[1.977798 0.099999] done

How can I disable this software interrupts ?
