On a side note, it _looks_ like the slowdown might be due to the udelay unification. Still bisecting. Joe

07 May '10

Hi all, I have loaded coreboot with FILO on a Kontron 986LCD-M board and when I am trying to boot Linux from FILO, it freezes at the "Jumping to entry point..." bit. Found Linux version 2.6.31.6 (limp@ubuntu) #50 Wed Feb 3 15:04:41 GMT 2010 bzIm age. Loading kernel... ok Loading initrd... ok Jumping to entry point... Does anyone have any idea on how to resolve that? Thank you in advance. P.S. please CC me. Regards, limp

H8QME-2+ boot problems on different machines.
by Knut Kujat 06 May '10

06 May '10

Hi, I have a strange problem trying to install/flash my Coreboot to several machines in the cluster some worked just fine and other hang at a really early moment. The machines are identical: H8QME-2+ with 16 GB RAM and 4 quadcore AMD Opterons 8350. I guess that from the point where it hangs that it must be some kind of CPU issue (I haven't switched CPUs yet). here the serial output: coreboot-4.0-r5224M Wed Apr 28 12:50:59 CEST 2010 starting...

Indtast Bcc Dell Optiplex GX1 support
by anders＠jenbo.dk 06 May '10

06 May '10

Hi As you are the only one who has this board you will have to do a bit of the work your self. But I would be glad to help you, I recently ported coreboot to a 440bx board, Ubuntu boots on it so Debians should work fine. There is still a few limitations in the support for this chip. No L2 cache no ecc memory, only sdram and no ACPI. Also it looks like you won't have support for any legacy I/O (ps2 keyboard pc speaker) You could of ofcourse fix all this by reading the docs an coding a bit of C :) -Anders ----- Reply message ----- Fra: "Cooper Harrison" <coop.rocks.123e(a)gmail.com> Dato: tor., maj 6, 2010 14:04 Emne: [coreboot] Dell Optiplex GX1 support Til: <coreboot(a)coreboot.org>

Dell Optiplex GX1 support
by Cooper Harrison 06 May '10

06 May '10

By looking at all the supported hardware, it looks like it should work at a minimum amount. It has an Intel 440BX, an Intel PIIX4e and a NSC (formerly National) PC87309. Will I be able to boot Debian and if not, how soon until whoever is working on it estimates they will have it at a working status? I am just wondering as I think it would be cool to have it on my computer. -- Cooper

Coreboot doesn't boot on Arima HDAMA rev.G mainboard
by Joop Boonen 05 May '10

05 May '10

All,' I cant create a bug ticket in: http://tracker.coreboot.org/trac/coreboot/newticket I've build Coreboot for this main board with LIFO with and without VGA ROM. But it doesn't get trough the boot process. I've attached some logging files and hwinfo as openSuSE shows it. Can someone help me? How can I create a bugzilla ticket, do I need a username/password? Regards, Joop.

by Joop Boonen 05 May '10

05 May '10

All, I have an issue that might be related to FILO. I don't seem to be able to read the filesystem. I've attached the serial session log. I've compiled filo with all debug flags. Regards, Joop.
