hi,all.
today I get an epia M800 mb, and use the original BIOS, install debian
woody.
after that, I build a linuxbios, with FILO 0.3 and VGA support, just replace
the original
BIOS. it works!, without any modification! ;-)
Best Reguards.
Ben.
I just got to looking at my test cases and I have successfully
compiled all of my test cases that are derivatives of actual
memory initialization code with -O2 and no extra registers.
Which is a very good sign for the case of using extra registers
to avoid inlining subroutines.
Eric
Hello,
I've tried google for the last 5 minutes. I can't remember how to
backup the original BIOS. I fried my working flash copy of it, and have
only the original, which I'd like to extract and put into another
working part as safety, but can't find how I did it in the first place.

Hi,
config.py moved to the target directory. Did this happen on purpose?
Should it not move to config/solo/solo instead of config/solo if it
moves at all?

Eric,
The same.
One Clue: Even I do the reverse scan, if I enable the hard_reset in the
misc_control.c. After the reset and successful scan the 8131/8111, it will
hang when scan the 8151.

YH

A) the reverse scan works and that is good.

Why? This is what I am trying to understand. It doesn't make sense
especially as I already did that, earlier. The resets to get the
hypertransport settings to take effect. I can see those depending on
the amd8111.
Have you tried the small subroutine change I sent?

I think Stephan will have trouble on it too.
For me, If I reverse scan in northbridge.c, and it will be OK.
It seems that 8131/8111 need to initialize before others.

Ok. Well at least it worked well enough to initialize memory.
Thanks for looking at this.
I just really want to understand why you have trouble with the 8151.
If I can find a reasonable explanation on why you need to do it in a
special magic order I don't mind. But without that I am a very
nervous about putting in any kind of bug fix.
I am still hopeful that it is a routing issue and my less hackish
fix will handle it. But it does not seem especially likely at the moment.
Eric
