Hi,
The company i worked for has designed a card that uses the AMD
Turion. It uses the PHOENIX Bios.
I am trying to port linuxbios to it. But among other issues, one
hardware engineer told me to make sure that linuxbios was using
the latest AGESA code from AMD (from what i understand that code
changes the CPU processor state, frequency,...)as it seems we had
trouble in the past getting the right BIOS with the latest AGESA
code.
How does linuxbios manage to do the same thing as the agesa …
[View More]code
(and at what agesa version)? If so what is the file location that
handles it?
Thanks a lot,
-jf simon

hi can someone confirm that i have the following correct?
i have an EPIA-M m/board with an SST39SF020A bios chip, along with an RD1-PL 2Mbit bios savour, are these both 2Mb chips? i have tried writing the RD1 with a image file, but it always fails :( anyone any pointers?
have so far tried to write image aprox 8 times, still with no luck :(
this is the output from flashrom :-
Original BIOS
# ./flashrom
Calibrating delay loop... ok
No LinuxBIOS table found.
Enabling flash write on VT8235...…
[View More]tried to set 0x45 to 0x55 on VT8235 failed (WARNING ONLY)
SST39SF020A found at physical address: 0xfffc0000
Flash part is SST39SF020A
OK, only ENABLING flash write, but NOT FLASHING.
RD1-PL BIOS
# ./flashrom
Calibrating delay loop... ok
No LinuxBIOS table found.
Enabling flash write on VT8235...OK
W49F002U found at physical address: 0xfffc0000
Flash part is W49F002U
OK, only ENABLING flash write, but NOT FLASHING.
as far as i can tell both are 2M bios, is htere something that prevent writing to the differant chip number properly?
PS. this bios savour worked fine on my EPIA-PD board, always writing corectly first time :(
Many thanks in advance
Matt

Hi!
I am looking for clarification about what and how (Linux)BIOS should
provide to kernel about memory size/memory regions.
I'm wondering about linuxbios table: there are lot of different
variation with new_resource/ram_resource, where those calls are placed,
what regions they are setting up, are those regions 0-TopOfSysRAM, or
0-640/768-TopOfSysRAM etc. And reportedly it all works with linux kernel.
I'm not sure how to properly control linuxbios table content - and is
this table …
[View More]mandatory for linux kernel?
thanks,
Indrek
