 This looks like the bootup code for gen f Opterons.
 It doesn't look like the h8dme has a fam10 variant yet,
 which is what you need for the 2378 CPUs.

 I'm surprised you found a revision that works, since
 it has never supported fam10.  I think it would be more
 fruitful for you to look at one of the boards that has
 both fam10 and k8 support, and try to put together an
 h8dme_fam10 port.

 For the record, I've been trying to get that going for a
 while, but have not had much success - very early hangs
 in the fam10 code on this board. Cf. the problems Knut
 is having, I think...


What AMD Processor model numbers have you folks been using
on the SuperMicro H8DME-2 mainboards?  I'd like to buy a
pair of known-working CPUs.

I currently have a pair of AMD model #2378 Processors,
which are of the fam10 line, with a pair of model #
CPUs, which are of the K8 line.

Thoughts?
Regards,
Joe

The port for that board was done on a pair of 2216 HE CPUs.

You may be hard pressed to find those for sale these days...

Thanks,
