[LinuxBIOS] Intel 815
by Shaddam Corrino IV 12 Jan '07

12 Jan '07

I had a closer look at this i815 platform it contains : FW82815 FW82801BA SST49LF004A, which seems to be 512KiB flash Unfortunatelly, it seems that the above flash is soldered to the MBO :-( Does it mean there's no way I can use the system for L/B or is there some inexpensive way to correct this deficiency? Not sure if that's a good price, but you can get complete 1 GHZ i815 systems (ie ready for use desktop) here for about $65. -- Thanks! Shaddam IV

[LinuxBIOS] SMM in LinuxBIOS
by Arvind Seshadri 12 Jan '07

12 Jan '07

Hi, I would like to implement a piece of code as an SMM handler in LinuxBIOS. >From what I understand of LinuxBIOS, there is no SMM handler at present but the SMM registers on the AMD K8 platform are locked using the SMMLOCK bit. How does the platform then handle SMI when using LinuxBIOS? I would be grateful for any advice or gotchas for my implementation. Thanks, Arvind

[LinuxBIOS] LinuxBIOS not working...

Hi Ron/All members of the LinuxBIOS group, I am new to the linuxBIOS technology.And wanetd to use the linuxBIOS stuff.But after creating the rom image and burning the chip, i was not able to see anything on either on display or on serial console.Can any one help me getting out of the problem. I am giving all the details so that you people can make out where am missing? Board Details: The contain chips from Via Northbridge: VT 8606(with AGP VGA Controller S3 Savage- twister) South Bridge: VIA VT82C686A BIOS Chip: 1MB ocessor Processor: PentiumIII or Celeron300MHz, 100 MHz Bus One SO-DIMM socket, 512 MByte max. PC100/ PC133 Two enhanced IDE ports SoundBlaster compatible AC97 I used the configuration available for VIA/EPIA and Image was successfully created.Initially i tried to use the support avialble for VT8601.But i think, iam not getting the northbridge chip intialised. If anyone have the support avialble for VT8606, then let me know. Just help me out so that i can get something on the serial console.After that debugging will become a little bit easier.
