seabios change to boot from last boot device for gPXE or other option rom booting
by Joe Julian 13 Mar '09

13 Mar '09

The hardcoded boot order method when using seabios with coreboot makes booting from option roms difficult if the number of hard drives installed is not a fixed number. I used this patch to allow choosing the last boot device by setting the nibble to 0xf. This allows me to boot from the gPXE option rom. diff --git a/src/boot.c b/src/boot.c index 6b4e985..44c1665 100644 --- a/src/boot.c +++ b/src/boot.c @@ -51,7 +51,8 @@ boot_setup() SET_EBDA(boot_sequence, 0xffff); if (CONFIG_COREBOOT) { // XXX - hardcode defaults for coreboot. - IPL.bootorder = 0x00000231; + // use 0xf to choose the last bev device + IPL.bootorder = 0x0000231f; IPL.checkfloppysig = 1; } else { // On emulators, get boot order from nvram. @@ -372,6 +373,10 @@ do_boot(u16 seq_nr) u32 bootdev = IPL.bootorder; bootdev >>= 4 * seq_nr; bootdev &= 0xf; + if(bootdev == 0x0f) { + dprintf(1, "IPL.bevcount = %d)\n", IPL.bevcount); + bootdev = IPL.bevcount; + } if (bootdev == 0) { printf("No bootable device.\n");

You don't have the latest version of SeaBIOS, and a bunch of changes recently went into the ata code. Please pull the latest version from git and retry. -Kevin

: ASUS P2-M2A690G Barebone
by Cirdec AREVIR 12 Mar '09

12 Mar '09

Hi, I'm trying to try Coreboot on this barebone that seems to be like the M2A-VM motherboard but flashrom can't do nothing with the flash chip : Calibrating delay loop... OK. No coreboot table found. Found chipset "ATI(AMD) SB600", enabling flash write... OK. No EEPROM/flash device found. If you know which flash chip you have, and if this version of flashrom supports a similar flash chip, you can try to force read your chip. Run: flashrom -f -r -c similar_supported_flash_chip filename The flash chip is an EON-EN25F80, after visual checking ;-) So, I bring in attachment some useful data, the motherboard is recognized as M2R68L, a standard AMD690G motherboard Any idea ? Thx. Regards Cedric.

VGA ROM hang, May be a bug of the coreboot V2
by wei yang 12 Mar '09

12 Mar '09

Hi, I currently use the coreboot v2 -3290 version.(very new). When I boot the corboot V2 on the intel/Truxon board, the serial port without VGA is ok. Then, I tried to add the VGA add-on card, the coreboot hung in the VGA ROM. After hard debug, I found this VGA OPTION ROM will check a flag in the address 0xffffe, in coreboot the value is 0x0. So the OptionROM go to the wrong path and do the infinite loop. Actually, this addr in the legacy bios will put the System Mode ID (0xFC) in it, I manually wrote 0xFC to the address 0xfffffe. The VGA ROM was ok and the screen was trun on. I guess it is a thing the coreboot should do, otherwise some VGA OPTION ROM can't work correctly. _________________________________________________________________ Drag n’ drop—Get easy photo sharing with Windows Live™ Photos. http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowslive/products/photos.aspx

about the CACHE settting issue in the coreboot
by wei yang 12 Mar '09

12 Mar '09

This is also happend on me, I also wandering it is may be a test for my debug ability. I guess the cache control in the currently coreboot is not so perfect. I got such issue, when I boot coreboot through filo with VGA card, then system hung at very beginning of the filo. Filo was even not print out any thing. I debug and debug( by added many printk and infinite loop), then found the system hung in the "LGDT" operation just after the coreboot load the payload code section in the memory. Actually, this "LGDT" operation were always ok befoere payload code copy operation. So, I think this phenomenon may be due to the cache. Since we dynamiclly genearte the code, we should fluch the code to force CPU reload.(if I am wrong, pls correct me) Then I tried to disable global cache just after MTRRR setting, the system successfully boot the filo prompt. I have checked the elfboot.c /boot.c in the coreboot v2, I don't found the cache syn operation in the code. Does any one has the comment?
