Hello! New patch :) Sorry about that, I have little to no experience with subversion. Also I found out that the rebooting loop wasn't caused by the AHCI SATA being off, but rather the console level for serial output was below 7 in the coreboot config file... I found it very strange.
Anyway, the real result of having AHCI SATA off in SeaBIOS causes the payload to just hang, before it says to press F12. With it on, I can access GRUB but I get kernel panics in any Linux distro. NetBSD also fails. I attached a new patch, using svn copy and such from Tilapia, keeping almost everything the same in the diff. After creating the diff, I poked around a bit more, but I couldn't solve the kernel panics. This isn't really a big concern for me personally but I thought it would be cool to have a board with over 1,100 reviews on newegg that would be supported by Coreboot. Might spark some attention as well. -Alec --- On Tue, 1/4/11, Peter Stuge <pe...@stuge.se> wrote: > From: Peter Stuge <pe...@stuge.se> > Subject: Re: [coreboot] Test SeaBIOS AHCI support > To: coreboot@coreboot.org > Date: Tuesday, January 4, 2011, 11:45 AM > Hi Alec, > > Neo The User wrote: > > I have attached the somewhat working port as a patch > > (ma785gm-us2h.patch) > > Cool! > > > > I hope the patch format is correct! > > Well, I'd say no.
