Hi Bari, Ollie and Eric,
Thank you for your replies; I am slightly confused... :-)
1)
[Ollie] AMD CPUs are supported by SiS 730 chipset.
Is the SiS 730 just an ancestor of the SiS 733/5 chipsets currently listed
on your website?
2)
[Bari] AMD cpus have been supported for some time now and chipsets get added
as

[Eric]Hardware that utilizes AMD cpus is currently supported, but we don't
have

If I got you both correctly, you are saying that
- the current LinuxBIOS code is sufficiently generic to run on some
motherboards containing a AMD chip, although no LinuxBios AMD-specific code
has yet been written.
- AMD-specific code is being written under NDAs, so in the future more
chipsets for AMD processors will be available.
Is this reading correct?
If, as I suggested before, you mean that some chipsets for AMD procs are
currently working, are the SiS 730/3/5 some of them?
Sorry for the confusion...,
Joane
