AMD LX800
by qchwu 24 May '08

24 May '08

Now,I want to design a ETX model used for communication.the following is the detials: CPU:AMD LX800 southbridge:AMD cs5536 ISA:w83626 ,LPC interface ETHNET:intel 82551 EEPROM:W39V04B,LPCinterface IDE:a CF card is used for boot OS,such as QNX,LINUX,VXWORKS,and so on. By the way,the ETX model must have for INT&IRQ PCI source for outside used. In order to do this,a FPGA is used in the system. the ISA bus is designed for outside use for SJA100 for CAN bus or other type chip. Baseed on the platform,I want to use coreboot-v2 to boot it. Can my idea come true? thanks, chenghu qin

legacybios tests on simnow and real hardware
by Myles Watson 24 May '08

24 May '08

This is what's needed to add legacybios to buildrom. I've tried legacybios as a payload for v3 qemu and v2 qemu, tyan s2892, and amd serengeti_cheetah. It works for v3 qemu and v2 qemu, but not tyan s2892 or amd serengeti_cheetah. I don't get any serial output from legacybios on any platform, even though I enable it. Any ideas? Thanks, Myles

[PATCH] v3: print current and wanted LZMA scratchpad size
by Carl-Daniel Hailfinger 23 May '08

23 May '08

Print current and wanted LZMA scratchpad size in the decompression routine. That allows people to either adjust compression parameters or scratchpad size. Having a similar check during build time would be nice.

Dear coreboot readers! This is the automated build check service of coreboot. The developer "uwe" checked in revision 3348 to the coreboot source repository and caused the following changes: Change Log: A bunch of cosmetic improvements (trivial). - Fix typos and inconsistencies. - Drop duplicate line which tells us the chip name twice. - Also print the chip vendor, not only the name. Signed-off-by: Uwe Hermann <uwe(a)hermann-uwe.de> Acked-by: Uwe Hermann <uwe(a)hermann-uwe.de> Build Log: Compilation of via:epia-cn is still broken See the error log at http://qa.coreboot.org/log_buildbrd.php?revision=3348&device=epia-cn&vendor… If something broke during this checkin please be a pain in uwe's neck until the issue is fixed. If this issue is not fixed within 24h the revision should be backed out. Best regards, coreboot automatic build system
