Hi all, I've grepped through the source code last night but haven't found code for board that uses this chipset. Is there any support coming down the road? I'm planning to buy a new system for BIOS experiments in the next few days. This chipset is a candidate for me. I want a chipset with onboard video and K8 processor. I choose K8 because the datasheet for the memory controller is readily available. I'm open for any suggestion(s). Basically, I just want a system that can run Vista, support multicore processor and can be used for LinuxBIOS experiments (preferably without soldering stuff needed). Anyway, one further question: hot-flashing can be done on SPI chips as well, right?

Hi Darmawan, Currently there is no support in LinuxBIOS for any ATI(now AMD) chipsets. We do plan to work on this in the next six months but I don't have a specific release date.
