I will surely contribute from my side once I know in and out of LinuxBIOS. For now, it is for other implementors to contribute more on this. rminnich(a)lanl.gov wrote On Tue, 15 Apr 2003 dkotian3(a)vsnl.net wrote: > Or is there some kind of Porting Guide or Porting Architecture > document for LinuxBIOS not yet, but we accept contributions. ron

Are the additional experiences or porting help for LinuxBIOS
by dkotian3＠vsnl.net 15 Apr '03

15 Apr '03

Hi, Are the additional experiences or porting help for LinuxBIOS I checked up the following location http://www.linuxbios.org/developer/portguides/index.html But could only find two over here. They are mainly for Disk-On-chip, is there something for ADLO or etherboot or some more porting issues. Or is there some kind of Porting Guide or Porting Architecture document for LinuxBIOS Please let me know. Thanks and Regards Deepak

[commit] tiger-i7501
by steven james 15 Apr '03

15 Apr '03

Greetings, Might as well join the party. I've comitted the tiger-i7501. For anyone working on a 7501 board, Eric's made some adjustments to the raminit code, it's worth updating your tree and trying the 533MHz FSB again.

Releases...
by ebiederman＠lnxi.com 15 Apr '03

15 Apr '03

Over the last several months I have been pushing Ron to start making stable releases of the LinuxBIOS tree. I have contributed the code for Version numbers, and I have been stable releases for boards I support from my own tree. Watching the LinuxBIOS tree one of the things I have seen is that change happens, and it breaks old ports. And as a developer I want more change so new ports are easier to do and simpler to maintain. The path forward as I see it is to freeze the core of the tree, and to have a stable 1.0 release series. With the goal being that from release to release, we do not break any existing port in the tree. To achieve this we need to freeze the core of the tree. And put any chipset code into at least a slush so fixing one board does not break an old board. Once all of the working boards are available in the stable tree, there is not a need to avoid breaking things in the development branch. A working even if someday antiquated version will always be available just be fetching an old stable release. So that is my plan for breaking everything without breaking anything:) Eric

Intel 82810E GMCH northbridge implementation
by Shubhangi Jadhav 15 Apr '03

15 Apr '03

Hi, To port LinuxBIOS to our motherboard, we need to implement support for the northbridge. The northbridge is Intel 82810E GMCH. May I know how easy/difficult it would be to implement the northbridge? Any suggestions on how to go about implementing this ? Thanks, Shubhangi

[COMMIT] sync up pass 3
by ebiederman＠lnxi.com 15 Apr '03

15 Apr '03

First stab at synchronizing the questionable code. The NLBConfig.py and getpir changes are safe simple changes. The read_bytes.h and rom_fill_inbuf.c removes tag support from LinuxBIOS altogether. The code is in the baremetal toolkit so we should not need it bloating the common code. Eric include/rom/read_bytes.h - Remove baremetal toolkit code src/rom/rom_fill_inbuf.c - Remove tag support util/config/NLBConfig.py - Remove crt0.o from OBJECTS-1 util/getpir/Makefile - set LINUXBSIOSROOT to an always working path
