If it's just about reading a file from usb and writing it to flash, you
might want to have a look at filo. It should be easy to integrate the
functionality of flash_rom into it, so you don't need a full blown
linux
system in flash.
That will be a good idea if FILO can launch the flash_rom
Hi all
I ve been lurking on this list for some time.
Has linuxbios been ported to the Via p4m266A mobo?
(vt8633, vt8235, IT8705)
If not can i do it?.
Basically i would like to boot from a usb thumb drive
(transcend 512Mb). The problem is that the bios
recognizes the usb only as a floppy and if
Greetings List and Hi Ron!
Ron, its been a while since I made on offlist enquiry about Linuxbios
support for AMD's ELANSC520 microcontroller. Couldn't get my hands on
the devel board hence the delay. Apologies for the same! I'll have the
board by the weekend so I thought now would be a good time

After a bit of digging around, I've narrowed down my choice of
bootloaders to telios' ALIOS and Linuxbios from you good people. Alios
seems to support only the ELAN SC400 and I am not sure of the existing
Linuxbios support for the ELAN SC520.
yeah, I hit this problem 2 weeks ago. Tried to put an X24 minicard into a
T41 and got the same error.
I hate fuctory BIOS.

Hi Stefan.
Thanks for your prompt response.
That would be nice.
Will look forward to checking out your code. Do let me know when you
would be able to hand it over,
Cheers and thanks,
Robin

I would love it if you could do that port. You need to get data from via
on how the chips work. That is your first step.

Far from an ideal solution, but:

Why waste time on that?
USB stick should be big enough to put (kernel+Initrd)elf in it.
LinuxBIOS--FILO in Etherboot--ELF on USB--console... flash_rom and
get image from USB too.

I'm porting LinuxBIOS to nVidia's CK8-04 (nForce4) chip. Currently, the
serial port is working and I believe the soft reset is working OK.
It seems that the smbus is not being setup properly. Any suggestions
are most welcome. Attached below is the serial output.
I will follow up with more
