Six boards are 'so many'? That's the entire EPIA range. ;-)

All? wow. There are so many. 

Our EPIA and EPIA-M all use the same part. I would be surprised if they 
did much else, since the southbridge is commonly only one of two types.

RE: New targets

Ron,

The 'sample'  EFI code known as 'Platform Innovation Framework for EFI' is
at the following link...

http://developer.intel.com/technology/efi/main_sample.htm

It is payload only code, used to debug EFI drivers.  But the full code is
rumored to be out 'soon'

FYI I'm doing a port for the 855PM chipset, ICH4 south, for a Pentium-M
box. Let's see how it goes. This is with V2.

More about the board later. I am mentioning this as I got from zero to an
initial source tree that compiles to a romimage in about 90 minutes, with
all the chips (not correct yet!) in place.

There's enough code you can use in the V2 tree now to really move fast to
build new platforms. Romcc is a big help here.

I hope others will see this and take heart.

There's also (finally) a transmeta platform in the works (V2 as well).

p.s. Has anyone seen the widely publicized Intel web site with BIOS source
on it? I have not yet seen it ... anyone have the URL? Someone asked me
about it again yesterday, and I did not know what to tell them. Is the
Intel open source BIOS just press releases so far with no code?

EPIA-M build problem for freebios2

2004-08-27 Thread Dan Sully
So first of all, it's not clear from any of the outdated documentation
whether one should be using freebios or freebios2.
So, I'm jumping in and trying to use 2 - but getting this error:

Any thoughts?

Dan, the LinuxBIOS project can use a good explanation if you find time
to write one.

  So, I'm jumping in and trying to use 2 - but getting this error:
  
  linuxbios_c.o(.data+0x1e4): undefined reference to `mainboard_via_epia_m_control'
 
i made a small change to fix this. please go ahead and test it.

Dear Ron Minnich,

I'm going to work on linuxbios for geode sc1200 board.
Could you provide me with a sample config file for it?
The linuxbios status page says nano/nano is supported but I could find 
the config file.

Best regards,

Minyoung
