Hi
How big is linuxbios? will 256K byte of flash do? I only have a flash
burner that will burn 512k byte.
I need to know before I download the source.
Thanks

LinuxBIOS easily fits into 256k, even with etherboot as payload. But if
you intend to burn a Linux Kernel into flash as well, you need at least
1MByte
That board has a VIA vt82c686b south on it? I built linuxbios for a
similar VIA board (endat) with an 8601 north and vt82c686b south. That
won't work with the epia or epia-m configs. but you can go from the
via/vt5426 config. You are perhaps getting garbage serial output because
you're setting

yes, 256KB is plenty for linuxbios + etherboot.

Hi Leon,
I have been fiddling with etherboot 5.0.10 and freebios(v1) from CVS today
on a EPIA-ME6000 platform.
This is the unit with a low speed clock (500MHz?) Eden C3 processor
which copes with passive cooling. I think it is EPIA-M9000 alike otherwise.
Using a hardware flash programmer, I

Have you tried 57600? EPIA-M6000 seems to have problem to use 115200
under LinuxBIOS unless it is boot from normal bios and then reset the
system. That's why you are getting garbage.
Any idea why? Broken hardware? Undocumented setups for the serial port?

Hi,

Most likely undocumented setup, 'coz my code works on another custom
board with the same chipset.

I suppose that linuxbiosmain.c is the program that loads the kernel. Is any bootloader used when booting linux from Flash memory into SDRAM?

OK, I have applied Yh Lu's patches for the most part. In almost all cases
they are tyan 2880-specific. There are three things I can see that might
affect others:
#ifdef some-variable
no longer works in many places, it has to be
#if some-variable == 1
to work.
