I use linuxbios to boot my mainboard tyan/s2881. But
I don't hope I'll use HD. I hope linux to mount
rootfs on ramdisk and run on it. How can I do that?
tks

Hey,
it is possible to change the LPT (Parport) Mode in LininuxBios for the
Epia-M.
I need only the standard Bios SPP Mode.
Currently, modprobe parport_pc detects following Modes
[PCSPP, Tristate, Compat, ECP] with LinuxBios
With SPP Mode from original Bios parport_pc detects
[PCSPP, Tristate, EPP] and that is what I need.
I think I must use EPP for a selfmade Printerport Interface.
I have tried to compile the Kernel without using FIFO, but it doesn't
work, also load the Module with DMA=none and several other options don't
work.
However , my LPT Interface does not work and therefor I will change the
Mode :D

Hello @ all,
I have searched the MailingList for Epia, and there is another poster
which have the same problem as I have.
A slow boot Epia-M, which needs about 10 seconds for the first messages
over the com port.
Somebody means, it could be a problem at the northbridge, but has have
no solution :(
There is a second thing in the post, which compares to me.
It seems the poster has the same RAM, as I have.
Only the size differs. My RAM is a Single Sided 2100/3200 256MB with
Samsung Chips.
Could the RAM the reason for the slow boot. I think the first thing to
initialize is the RAM. Furthermore, the RAM is direct connected to the NB.

Hello @ all,
I try to run LinuxBios on an Via Epia ML6000
and there are problems with the VGA output.
The chipset on the board is nearly the same as the Epia-M and the
console output seems to be ok, only the initialisation of the video bios
looks not fine.
The video bios is taken from the original Bios with dd.
Kernel is compiled with standard fb support. X fails, because of the non
exist /dev/fb0. Furthermore, there is no detecting of the graphic
hardware, if the kernel starts.
Please have a look at my file.
any hints?
regards chris

can you use old flash_rom instead?
Stephan,

San,
this is for you. You can disassembly code with HDT at CAR stage now..

I'm thinking to make LinuxBIOS to run at 64 bit mode so
it can access 40 bit address in one instruction
we just need to
1. change entry32.inc to entry64.inc...
2. change secondary.S to support 64 bit
3. change most code32 to code64
The problem is that we may need make Etherboot and mkelfImage to support
64 bit too...
how do you think about it?
YH
by Lu, Yinghai
I hate that in LinuxBIOS (CAR and RAM stage) I can not access the range
above 4G, esp the last 4G in 1T Range.
I could use fs base to access that, but that is quite slow...

I fully agree. We should make a feature freeze and only let changes in
that fix something until we _verified_ that all (K8) mainboards are
working and on the same level (ie. equal cmos layouts, dual core, car
enabled, etc pp.)
One step at a time. We just recovered.
Besides that, 64bit is a must, no doubt.

by Brunner, Richard
If it is quite slow, then I think there is something wrong
with the code.
You only need to write FS base or GS base MSR once per 4GB
assuming you can use 32-bit Protected non-paged mode.
I don't see why this should be slower than creating page tables
and populating them and doing the memory testing.
I'd like to get to the bottom of this one, but on offline
topic.
I personally agree with Ron, we should get AMD Opteron
squeaky clean first, before moving to 64-bit.

Hello @ all,
I try to compile flashrom on my older Suse Distro 8.2 with Kernel 2.4.20
and gcc 3.3 Suse Prerelease, but it fails because of the -Werror Flag.
e.g flashrom_enable.c line 408 and 417
warning: comparison between signed and unsigned ... bla, bla
breaks the process.
If I delete -Werror in the makefile. flashrom is build, but with many
warnings shown below in mostly each file to compile.
Also, flashrom doesn't work for me, I get an error
"LinuxBios Table not found"
and then a
Segmention Fault
What goes wrong? Is my gcc version to old?
pciutils are installed.
regards Chris
