Thanks! That brings the early timings on epia-cn to: 00.000: <00> 00.005: <00> 00.382: 0 00.382: 00.382: coreboot-4.0-r5415M Mon Apr 12 20:37:07 EDT 2010 starting... 00.383: *pre enable_smbus() 00.405: *post enable_smbus() 00.409: *pre ddr_ram_setup() 00.420: *post ddr_ram_setup() 00.423: Stage: loading fallback/coreboot_ram @ 0x4000 (163840 bytes), entry @ 0x4000 00.469: coreboot-4.0-r5415M Mon Apr 12 20:37:07 EDT 2010 rebooting... The romcc code is a little faster (~16ms), but that's only because I hacked it to read the coreboot_ram file into cache while waiting for the smbus power well to stabilize. (With car it isn't possible to seed the cache, but that's not a big deal.) -Kevin -- coreboot mailing list: coreboot@coreboot.org http://www.coreboot.org/mailman/listinfo/coreboot
