Hi, This patch adds automatic detection of installed RAM presence, size, and MA mapping type for VIA VT8601 northbridge.
I tested this with VIA EPIA 5000 and 3 different type DIMMs.
A. 64MB single sided (borrowed from my server :) B. 256MB double sided (borrowed from my desktop :) C. 256MB single sided (bought for EPIA)
Timing was set to PC100 CL=3. (it's configurable at build time) EPIA has 2 DIMM slots, and 'empty' is possible in addition to 3 DIMMs, so there are 12 (=4*3) possible installation patterns. All patterns are tested with memtest86 3.0 as payload, to at least Test #2, and no error was found. Additionally DIMM B+C (512MB total) with PC133 CL=2 configuration was tested and all tests of memtest86's Std Test found no error.
