Hi There,

Has anyone had any success with VMWare.  I have partially implemented the PC87360 SIO chip which has give me serial and I can boot LinuxBIOS up to the elf payload stage.  I'm trying to get the VMWare VGA to work at no avail.  Has anyone else has success with this.

I have added

default CONFIG_CONSOLE_VGA=1
default CONFIG_PCI_ROM_RUN=1

to the Optionslb file and adjusted the size of the ROM image by -32KB (sizeof VGA BIOS for VMWare)
and also added

        device pci f.0 on                         # VGA controller
            chip drivers/pci/onboard
                device pci f.0 on end
                register "rom_address" = "0xfff80000"
            end
        end

to the Config.lb.

When I start VMWare with this image though it does nothing but sit there with no VGA.  I have even enabled serial logging back on using CONFIG_CONSOLE_SERIAL8250 but still continue to use CONFIG_PCI_ROM_RUN but nothing then even gets written to the serial port. 

When does the VGA BIOS rom get called, at what stage?

Regards,
Joe
