okay, I've got a nullmodem-cable here, but how can I see if there is any output?

my graphics-controller is integrated in the Cx5530A-chipset. I think it should be supported, or am I wrong?

Thx, Tom

Filling the Linuxbios.rom to 256 kB with zeros (dd if=/dev/zero bs=1k count=192 >> linuxbios.rom) or with itself three more times (cat linuxbios.rom linuxbios.rom linuxbios.rom linuxbios.rom > bios256.rom) doesn't work, the monitor displays nothing (is framebuffer neccessary for that?!). So, how to make the generated linuxbios.rom will be 256 kB?

Please try connecting a serial nullmodem cable and see if you get any
output there. What graphics card does the system have? LinuxBIOS is
unlikely to initialize your video correctly, except on a very small
number of boards with onboard graphics (or with testbios)


linuxbios.rom is only the linuxbios image without the payload it seems.
I have in mind that V1 was not as solid with payload handling as V2 is,
but I may be wrong..
