I suppose the best thing for you to do is browse the targets ( http://www.openbios.org/viewvc/trunk/LinuxBIOSv2/targets/ ), find specific motherboard (Such as tyan/s2912), and ask if anyone can confirm that it will work "out of the box." On Sun, 25 Feb 2007 17:42:44 -0500 "Ning (Michael) Qu" <[EMA

Hi, David Thanks for your reply! And so the support of the motherboard you suggest is already merged into LinuxBIOS? And are you sure that BIOS saviors are no longer being manufactured? I find that their website is still there but no recent update. On 2/23/07, Corey Osgood <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wro
