I just built Uwe's s1846 target and saw no output on /dev/ttyS* (serial port).
What differences should I be concerned about using the s1846 target for this motherboard 440BX based motherboard in order to get debug output? (Box acts like no bios is plugged into the motherboard.)
Which Super I/O is on the board? If it's not a PC87309 it won't work. You'll need to change the Super I/O in auto.c then...
Just for reference, looks like a Winbond W83977EF-AW
In the cvs, I see LinuxBIOSv2/src/superio/winbond/w83977tf
I'm going to give it a shot. Also just downloaded the chip spec pdf files for comparison.
If things just work, you'll here.
Also for reference, my Tyan 1832DL (440bx dual cpu) has also a PC87309 (IBW* are the first three suffix letters I *think*).
I probably should have ordered a 2nd Bios Savior for my 1832, but for now, the P2XBL 440BX motherboard is easily torn apart versus this server.
