Can someone tell me where I could buy a inexpensive motherboard with linuxbios support. Maybe even linuxbios preinstalled. I wouldn't mind giving my money to help the cause which is why i am asking. Thank You

Try to disable the pcie support in your kernel YH I tried removing pcie in kernel... same problem. steve --------------------------------- Yahoo! Music Unlimited - Access over 1 million songs.Try it free.

[LinuxBIOS] [PATCH] Change payload buildrule to 'cp -f'
by Richard Smith 12 Jul '06

12 Jul '06

mkelfimage creates read only output. This causes the build script to error with a permission denied when it tries to overwrite a payload created by mkelfimage. Eric Biederman requested that we mod the script rather than change the output of mkelfimage upstream. -- Richard A. Smith

[LinuxBIOS] Build issue for khepri target
by Anil B G 12 Jul '06

12 Jul '06

Hi, I am new to LinuxBIOS. I downloaded the latest snapshot of LinuxBIOSv2 and tried building it for a couple of boards (newisys/intel etc). I was able to build it for intel but when I tried to build it for newisys/khepri I got the following error: gcc -o buildrom /home/anil/LinuxBios/LinuxBIOSv2/util/buildrom/buildrom.c ./buildrom linuxbios.strip linuxbios.rom payload 0x20000 0x20000 payload (77000) + linuxbios (131072) size larger than ROM (131072) size! make[1]: *** [linuxbios.rom] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/anil/LinuxBios/LinuxBIOSv2/targets/newisys/khepri/khepri/fallback' make: *** [fallback/linuxbios.rom] Error 1 I disabled the fallback option and then was able to get the khepri.rom whose size was 384K. I am using the FILO as the payload. Is the size of 384K fine? Has any one used LinuxBIOSv2 on khepri? Would appreciate any help. Pls. let me know if any addl. info is reqd. The gcc version is 3.4.3 Regards Anil

[LinuxBIOS] mobo suggestions?
by John Heim 11 Jul '06

11 Jul '06

Hi, I'm blind and I want to try linuxbios to see if that will allow me to access the BIOS on a computer. I would like to try to build myself a new PC and I was wondering if anybody has a suggestion for a motherboard. On the web site, there's a list of mobos that linuxbios is known to work on but they seem to be server motherboards. I just want something that I can use for a desktop workstation.

[LinuxBIOS] Issues facing IHVs supporting LinuxBIOS
by Drew Lundsten 11 Jul '06

11 Jul '06

I've been lurking for a couple of months and like what I see. I am also interested in some recent comments disparaging EFI, as well as recent posts (apparently) from hardware vendors asking how to support LinuxBIOS on their platforms. After reading through the FAQ again and not finding answers to my questions, I now turn to the list: 1) What legal conditions, or obligations to make derived source code available, are placed on independent hardware vendors offering LinuxBIOS support for their hardware? 2) What's up with Intel, and why, for instance, can't an IHV use their BIOS guides to support LinuxBIOS? Is it strictly a question of access (via IBL or hardcover - "orange cover") to such guides, and IHVs with access to these guides are free to distribute their product with LinuxBIOS, subject to bugginess resulting from mediocre/nonexistent Intel support? 2b) I see Intel's 7520 chipset is actually supported, and that's rather recent - is this an anomaly, or the end of the line for Intel support? 3) Is there a list of IHVs who DO ship product on LinuxBIOS? For an IHV developing embedded hardware that's just going to run Linux unattended anyway, it seems LinuxBIOS would be a natural choice and a tremendous cost savings; at the same time, the power profile of Intel's new architecture is well-suited to this niche. I'm trying to figure out why more commercial vendors aren't on this bandwagon. Thanks for your input, Drew
