Hi,
It has been a couple of years since I was futzing with the ugly beast that is vxWorks ;-). However, I don't think the Intel BSPs are 'plug-and-play'. I.e. vxWorks counts on the BIOS setting up the IRQ bindings for all PCI devices.
It seems to me that most of the current linuxbios ROMs don't setup the PCI IRQs - they rely on the fact that linux is able to use the pirq table and do it's own PCI IRQ assignment. If you are using vxWorks you may need to make sure your mainboard.c is assigning IRQs to all PCI devices.
I just sent Andrew a patch which does this for the Via Epia motherboard. After this is checked in you should search the source for pci_assign_irqs for example usage.

Hi, folks
We have a custom board based on 440LX chipset and successfully use LinuxBIOS to boot linux kernel.
In the near future we'll have VxWorks on the same hardware platform. It would be very nice to have LinuxBIOS booting this OS as well. Do you think this is possible ? Any hints or pointers would be very much appreciated.
TIA.
Felix.
