Hi,
I ran into problems to enable VGA in coreboot on the ME6000.
The log:

The whole thing is stored in a 39SF040 (512 KB), so I've set the rom_address to 0xfff8000:
device pci 0.0 on # PCI chip drivers/pci/onboard device pci 0.0 on end register "rom_address" = "0xfff80000" #512k image end end
(I've also tried to create a 256 KB image (prepended with 256 KB of 0s) with fffc0000 - same effect).
The following options are used:
option CONFIG_CONSOLE_VGA=1 option CONFIG_PCI_ROM_RUN=0 option ROM_SIZE=458752
The fallback size is set to the same value as the ROM_SIZE (458752) as I use a fallback-only image.
The interesting things are:
1. It doesn't matter if I use OptionsRom or the legacy VGA-BIOS 2. Without VGA BIOS (configuration adapted) it works.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance
Michael
