RE: Nvidia CK804 and Tyan S2895 support

Still wait for Nvidia releasing the chipset. Some one said it will be released this Oct. Also I hope more guys can push Nvidia to let us to release the code for that. Nvidia doesn't make the final decision if they will support LinuxBIOS.

You can comment out dir /drivers/broadcom/tg3 too. Current Etherboot has problem with NIC is S2850. I forget the chip model. So I use one add on card to do network booting.

Hi, It seems flash_rom in freebios/util/flash_and_burn not support SST 49LF002A flash chip. Who can teach me how to add this feature? Thanks! _________________________________________________________________ 免费下载 MSN Explorer: http://explorer.msn.com/lccn/

LinuxBIOS + Etherboot Problems
by Jeff Stevens 15 Sep '04

15 Sep '04

I am trying to load a kernel over Etherboot, and am having some problems doing so. I am using etherboot version 5.2.2, and mkelfImage 2.5 released 24 April 2003. Here is the output I get: --> Welcome to elfboot, the open sourced starter. January 2002, Eric Biederman. Version 1.3 Loading Etherboot version: 5.2.2 ROM segment 0x2e81 length 0x7938 reloc 0x00020000 CPU 1664 Mhz Etherboot 5.2.2 (GPL) http://etherboot.org Tagged ELF for [3C90X] get_memsizes | linuxbios Relocating _text from: [000244e0,00034330) to [efef01b0,eff00000) Probing pci nic...

I have booted this kernel on this machine fine before (when it was burned into flash and booted directly from LinuxBIOS). Do I need to change anything in the targets Config.lb when I run etherboot, or should it be the same as when I burn the kernel into flash? I am also able to boot the kernel over Etherboot fine on another one of my machines booting etherboot from a floppy. On the machine in question, Etherboot is the payload of LinuxBIOS. Please help!

epia m vga + memcpy update
by Trellix78＠aol.com 14 Sep '04

14 Sep '04

hate to be clogging up the list but memcpy works!! It looks like the VT8622/8623/8635 all have the same way of dealing with this shadow copy stuff. After losing a couple of hours sleep, I've hit another snag here (partial log): ==================================== setting pci slot setting vt8235 slot Assigning IRQ 5 to 0:11.1 Readback = 5 Assigning IRQ 12 to 0:11.5 Readback = 12 INSTALL REAL-MODE IDT DO THE VGA BIOS found VGA: vid=1106, did=3122 Setting up VGA, VGABIOS_START: 0xfffc0000 write_protect_vgabios Looks like VGA_ROM is good: 0x55 0xaa VGA copy looks good bus/devfn = 0x100 biosint: # 0x15, eax 0x5f00 ebx 0x100 ecx 0x100 edx 0x12 biosint: ebp 0x138dc esp 0xff2 edi 0xf934 esi 0x141f8 biosint: ip 0x637f cs 0xc000 flags 0x46 calling handleint21() done with handleint21() returning from biosint()...ret=-1 biosint: # 0x1a, eax 0xb108 ebx 0x0 ecx 0x0 edx 0x3d5 biosint: ebp 0x138dc esp 0xfcc edi 0xf6 esi 0x155eb biosint: ip 0x40da cs 0xc000 flags 0x46 calling pcibios() 0xb108: bus 0 devfn 0x0 reg 0xf6 val 0x3 done with pcibios() returning from biosint()...ret=0 ================================================= I've tried to put some debugging outputs but the system just grinds to a halt after the second call to biosint(). It's now my belief that directly manipulating the registers on the Apollo CLE266 northbridge might yield better results for the epia M. VIA doesn't seem inclined to give out the datasheets or source code, as the posts on viaarena indicate. I wonder if looking at the linux driver patches for kernel 2.4 and greater might offer some clues. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
