RE: Windows over LinuxBIOS

Hi, Read this: http://pcburn.com/article.php?op=Print&sid=62 ________________________________ From: linuxbios-admin(a)clustermatic.org [mailto:linuxbios-admin@clustermatic.org] On Behalf Of Dave Belt Sent: Wednesday, September 08, 2004 9:02 AM To: linuxbios(a)clustermatic.org Subject: Windows over LinuxBIOS I have a customer building a custom PC based board. I have been presenting LinuxBIOS as a viable BIOS option; however, they have a serious interest in running Windows, likely 2K & XP, on this board. Does anybody have experience in this area to share? I'm currently trying to get a grasp of the effort required beyond the LinuxBIOS port itself. Also, what kind of reliability are you getting with your implementation? Any info you could provide would be much appreciated. Thanks

RE: port linuxbios(v1) to i845GV based MB
by YhLu 08 Sep '04

I suggest you start the work from freebios2. The similar northbridge E7501 is already there. You may just need to change some pci_write_conf32 to mem io for memory controller initialization. Other 82801er and Winbond 83627hf is there too. The Mainboard is tyan s2735.

I've got P4i45GV MB based on i845GV(northbridge:i845GV, southbridge:82801db, superio: winfast w83627hf ). I try to port linuxbios(v1) to this board. Today I have built my first romimage for it. There met one problem when using it to boot. Serial output is unreadable code. I have checked the baud rate it's ok. Maybe setup_serial has some bug. tks zhu _______________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Win 1 of 4,000 free domain names from Yahoo!

Elf may come from FILO, Etherboot, FILO with Ethrboot. The onboard Broadcom NIC doesnt work with Etherboot 5.2.4 and I didnt test if it works with 5.2.5 or 5.3etc. Regards YH _____ From: Sagiv Yefet [mailto:sagivy@3vium.com] Sent: Wednesday, September 08, 2004 3:38 AM To: linuxbios(a)clustermatic.org Subject: elf for tyan s2850 What elf file should I use for tyan s2850 ? thanks

You need to include northbridge/amd/amdk8/resourcemap.c in the auto.c Someone split the function from raminit.c Regards Yinghai Lu _____ From: Sagiv Yefet [mailto:sagivy@3vium.com] Sent: Wednesday, September 08, 2004 2:35 AM To: linuxbios(a)clustermatic.org Subject: tyan-s2850 I am trying to build target to tyan-s2850 and there is a compilation error: setup_default_resource_map undeclared The problem is that there is no src/mainboard/tyan/s2850/resourcemap.c What should I do ? thanks

epia m vga + memcpy failed
by Trellix78＠aol.com 08 Sep '04

That message is from the original freebios. I was thinking that shadowing is not corretly set up and that maybe the segment is write-protected. After setting up shadowing, the chipset my turn on write protection by default, anyway. I don't know how to turn write protection off specifically for the C00000 segment. So far, the only reference that I can find about write protection is in the Pentium developer's manual. It says to have bit 16 of CR0 be zero to turn off write protection.

EPIA-M build problem for freebios2

So first of all, it's not clear from any of the outdated documentation whether one should be using freebios or freebios2. So, I'm jumping in and trying to use 2 - but getting this error: ar cr linuxbios.a malloc.o apic_timer.o pci_ops.o vt8235.o chip.o memset.o fallback_boot.o keyboard.o cpuid.o pnp_device.o printk.o irq_tables.o pgtbl.o tables.o pci_device.o console.o cpufixup.o elfboot.o hardwaremain.o boot.o linuxbios_table.o delay.o version.o memcmp.o isa-dma.o hypertransport.o vtxprintf.o root_device.o mtrr.o uart8250.o device_util.o ./option_table.o compute_ip_checksum.o device.o memcpy.o northbridge.o clog2.o pirq_routing.o memmove.o mc146818rtc.o rom_stream.o c_start.o vsprintf.o cpu.o static.o gcc -nostdlib -r -o linuxbios_c.o c_start.o mainboard.o uart8250_console.o linuxbios.a /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i486-linux/3.3.4/libgcc.a gcc -nostdlib -nostartfiles -static -o linuxbios_c -T /home/dsully/src/freebios2/src/config/linuxbios_c.ld linuxbios_c.o linuxbios_c.o(.data+0x1e4): undefined reference to `mainboard_via_epia_m_control' collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make: *** [linuxbios_c] Error 1 targets/via/epia-m/epia-m/normal/static.c which includes: src/mainboard/via/epia-m/chip.h where mainboard_via_epia_m_control is set as extern.
