Re: linuxbios on geode gx1.....
On a minimally related note. In the NSC framebuffer driver I saw mention to a Geode GX1 Pyramid chip which supposedly fixed an issue with pitch 1k for 16bpp. I've haven't been able to get an answer from AMD about what this chip was, or if national ever made it. It was mentioned in the driver back when the geode gx1 was still in b2 silicon revision. This limitation kind of prevents any 16x9 resolutions other than 848x480 with a suitable color depth, though technically there's enough memory. Is it aligned differently or something?

That is just the board. But unicorn (as part of their service) will provide the boards with a custom BIOS (their BIOS or one you supply). Although buying from them vs cwlinux if the price is relatively the same is probably of little value. One of the reasons they appealed to what we were doing is because they guarantee a relatively long lifespan for the board. Which saves having to qualify a new board every year or so.

Hi Brian,
The initrd is 3MB uncompressed. I require a few utilities (bash, echo,

Have you tried busybox and uclibc? You can safe quite alot storage area.

Re: linuxbios and bochs
SONE, I had not been able to find any documentation on BOOT_IDE, so I tried using Eric's mkelfImage with etherboot and the ide_disk loader. The only problem I have there is it requires me to leave an empty chunk of disk at the beginning of the drive to place the elf kernel+initrd image. That doesn't inherently cause the problem, but the fact that I can't just leave an empty space at the beginning, but rather have to create an unformatted partition does. It requires changing both the initrd, any software which uses devices directly, and the installer. Using an elf loader and a kernel+initrd image is a suitable fallback position, but something which is more of a drop in replacement on the eeprom is still a goal for me.

Re: linuxbios and bochs
Ron, Those are intel flash parts correct? My initrd is 1.3MB right now. I'm not using it for libraries. I am using it to set up the root filesystem. It mounts hda1 which has a tarball containing the fs for the root fs. extracts that to a ramdisk, switches teh root device, and exits. I would love to boot the kernel from flash, but it's not to be.

Re: linuxbios and bochs
The initrd is 3MB uncompressed. I require a few utilities (bash, echo, mount, tar, and umount). When the system boots and loads the initrd, it mounts hda1 which contains a root tarball. It then extracts the tar into the ramdisk. So it requires a few system libraries. c, ld, dl, rt (tar), termcap, pthread. I think what I am going to do is just use linuxbios + etherboot to boot an elf image from the ide disk, and move the partitions down.

Is there an problem with kernel in flash, which mounts hda1 and does all those things you mentioned? Why is that initrd so big? ron ___ Linuxbios mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.clustermatic.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxbios
Re: linuxbios and bochs
Ron, I'm always doing a hard reset. When using linuxbios I am unable to do a soft reset with this board. The last POST code I get when it does happen to work is 0x77 (from bochs) which is at the end of the keyboard init code. One thing I have not tried is using etherboot to load adlo/bochs from the had disk, but I really do not think that the step before bochs is the issue.
