commit 29f99886c7b3d4fa91790b944a18da054fba6d85 Author: Patrick Rudolph siro@das-labor.org Date: Sat Mar 26 12:16:29 2016 +0100
nb/intel/sandybridge/raminit: add additional fallbacks
Add the following fallbacks: * Try decreasing clock frequency. In case of DDR1600 the next possible value of DDR1333 is being used. * Try decreasing clock frequency. In case of DDR1333 the next possible value of DDR1066 is being used. * Disable failing channel. The system may be able to boot with a single channel enabled.
The fallbacks are untested.
