I got a linuxbios.rom and a linuxbios.strip, both 64kB. But somehow, I think, the other 192kB of the Bios have to be filled with some kernel-sources. I read something about kernel 2.4.10 and a patch, but I can't find these instructions again. Then, if done, I think I have to put the linuxbios.rom & the linux.bin together with the tool nrv2b. Am I right?
Thanks again,
Tom
P.S. @Richard: I added this to the config-file (didn't know it should be there): option SERIAL_SUPERIO_BASEADDRESS=0x3f0

Looks like the boot up serial_setup is not right. crt0.s is built from files specified in your ./mainboard/Avantech/pcm-5823/Config
the serial boot output stuff is built from this line.
mainboardinit superio/SMC/fdc37b72x/setup_serial.inc
Looking at the .inc for the advantech stuff and the config and some grepping I see that the superio base address is set with SMC_BASE in the pcm-5823 but set with SERIAL_SUPERIO_BASEADDRESS in the pcm-9574.
What did you change this like to?
Go look at whatever seteup_serial.inc you have and see what option it needs set for the serial base address.
It may be as simple as adding a
option SERIAL_SUPERIO_BASEADDRESS 0x<base>
to your mainboard config file or you may have to make some setup_serial.inc mods for whatever superio you changed to.
