Re: [coreboot] [PATCH] First support for HP DL145 G3

[samuel]

I just tried building this :)

But I didn't succeed.
What I did:
1. checkout payload filo, apply filo_dl_145_sata.patch and build it.
svn co svn://coreboot.org/filo
cd filo/trunk/filo
patch -p 0 << ~/coreboot/filo_dl_145_sata.patch
sh build.sh
cp build/filo.elf ~/coreboot/

2. checkout coreboot-v2, apply remaining patches and build it:
svn co svn://coreboot.org/repos/trunk/coreboot-v2
cd coreboot-v2
patch -p 0 << ~/coreboot/bcm2100.patch
patch -p 0 << ~/coreboot/pilot_superio.patch
patch -p 0 << ~/coreboot/hp_dl145_g3.patch
patch -p 0 << ~/bcm5785_noide.patch
cd targets
buildtarget hp/dl145_g3 /home/samuel/coreboot/coreboot_v2
cd hp/dl145_g3
sed -e s@/home/mondrian/filo.elf@/home/samuel/coreboot/filo.elf@g Config.lb
cd dl145_g3
make

and then i get the error:
http://merlin.ugent.be/~samuel/dl145g3/builds/firmware_build_20090331_1708.t...

Any suggesions? Did I do something wrong?
