Build question - coreboot v2 - filo - buildrom tree relationship
by Mick Reed 20 Sep '09

20 Sep '09

I'm trying to build a coreboot-filo-grub bios for my Tyan s2885. I downloaded svn trees of coreboot-v2, filo-trunk, and buildrom-devel. I followed the tutorial for the Tyan s2882. I'm having some build problems, and I wonder if I was supposed to put the filo tree or the buildrom tree inside the coreboot tree in order to get it build. I can give more details of my issues, but I would like to straighten this question out first, and RTFM some more before asking for more newbie help. Thanks for any input! Mick Reed

if anyone is going, might be fun to have a coreboot install-a-thon. I can bring some nodes if there's going to be more there than just me. ron

Infinite loop in cbfstool
by Myles Watson 18 Sep '09

18 Sep '09

If you try to add a payload that is larger than the available space, and not at a specific location (location == 0), it hangs in an infinite loop. It's something like: if contentsize <= length or location is right { insert record } if location == 0 continue. I wasn't sure where the best place to put the increment of current was. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks, Myles

Alix 3d2

Hi. I have an ALIX 3d2: http://pcengines.ch/alix3d2.htm. I wish to flash it but I fear to brick it as I guess it differs a bit from the ALIX 2CX on your Wiki. Anyone had experience with such motherboard?

Re: [coreboot] COREBOOT for VIA EPIA P700 (from - BIOS POST codes monitoring in real time from other computer)

Hi Antonio, Antonio Expósito wrote: > coreboot support for vx700 and vx800 (vx700 drives P700 motherboard). > May I wait some time to see if they get results? vx800 code is supported in coreboot since earlier this year. vx700 I don't know - but I believe it has many similarities with cx700 which is supported. > Anyone can give some clues about developing state (ongoing, halted, > abandoned,) Noone is working on the existing code as far as I know. I'm working a little bit on explicit VX855 support, but there is a lot of redundancy with VX800.

The mailing list is a good start, you're also very welcome to join the IRC channel #coreboot on irc.freenode.net. > The supported motherboard list is up to date and people use to > report their ongoing work or ideas? No, that page is unfortunately not a great progress tracker. //Peter

Look for the most similar supported board, modify the device tree in src/mainboard/via/(closest_one)/Config.lb to match your SuperIO, Northbridge, Southbridge, etc. > Perhaps I can help, which are the first steps? > > Any doc for a new guy? > http://www.coreboot.org/FAQ http://www.coreboot.org/Development_Guidelines It takes some time to find everything you'll need on the wiki, but it's worth reading.

Request for EPIA-LN BIOS
by Ciffo 17 Sep '09

17 Sep '09

Dear Sirs, I would like to ask you for full implementation of EPIA-LN BIOS. I haven't time for study all COREBOOT system. We will need to jump into system boot (GRUB/LILO) as soon as possible. For our device will we need only support for IDE flash disks, USB ports, VGA and audio. Could you send me complete ROM for this board, which will reach our needs? Thank you very much for you fast answer. Best regards, Jaroslav.
