Ron,
Consider me Pre-Pinged !
I've already e-mailed Luc and the list, I guess you haven't caught up
with your
e-mail yet :-)
There is definately a need to add the following 2 lines to
mainboard/via/epia/Options.lb
use CONFIG_CONSOLE_SERIAL8250
default CONFIG_CONSOLE_SERIAL8250=1
Current status
Thanks for the feedback, those lines helped. Now I get as far as:
Welcome to elfboot, the open sourced starter.
January 2002, Eric Bierderman.
Version 1.3
And it sits there... should it be doing something else before it loads
up FILO, or does this mean LinuxBIOS has finished it's job and now I

Oh, ok. I just tried an etherboot payload, and that loads. So it must
be my FILO config. .. I don't even get the boot: prompt..
I'm going to try the etherboot ide_disk maybe and and see what that does.
Any ideas what's going on with FILO?

yes, that could help.
Thanks

Same thing, with one small difference... I turned debugging on and this
is what I get :
find_ide_controller: found PCI IDE controller 1106:0571 prog_if=0x8f
find_ide_controller: primary channel: native PCI mode
find_ide_controller: cmd_base=0x0 ctrl_base=0x0
ide_software_reset: Waiting for ide0 t
No effect. Here is the output when I boot:
LinuxBIOS-1.1.7.0Normal Sat Dec 4 10:16:38 AST 2004 starting...
87 is the comm register
SMBus controller enabled

ok, just double check that your ide is right, and can somebody send me an
lspci for these boards? I don't have one handy.
Finally, I do know that native ide mode was always buggy on this part. Is
that a possibility here?

you mean machine is on, and you want it to cycle real fast?
we need to figure o
You can enable debug in filo. Also add some printf in ide_disk.c

don't give up.
If VIA has wired a GPIO pin to power control, then it might still be
possible. Not sure.
