I've just tried running lxbios on a gigabyte m57sli-s4 board that's running LinuxBIOS. This was the output:
# ./lxbios -y ../LinuxBIOSv2/src/mainboard/gigabyte/m57sli/cmos.layout -a
You should not need to use -y here when running under linuxbios. it should read the cmos options from the lb table.
boot_option = Fallback last_boot = Fallback ECC_memory = Disable baud_rate = 1200
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ?
hw_scrubber = Enable interleave_chip_selects = Enable max_mem_clock = 100Mhz dual_core = Disable power_on_after_fail = Disable # Bad value -> debug_level = 0xf # Bad value -> boot_first = 0x7 boot_second = Network # Bad value -> boot_third = 0x4 boot_index = 0xe boot_countdown = 0xfa # Bad value -> slow_cpu = 0xd nmi = Enable iommu = Enable lxbios: Can not read LinuxBIOS parameter user_data because layout info specifies CMOS area that is too wide. lxbios: Warning: LinuxBIOS CMOS checksum is bad.
As you can see there's an error at the bottom, and a bunch of 'bad value' warnings. I first tried without passing it the cmos layout file, and got the same result as above.
Did you ever set the options to reasonable values? linuxbios does not to this by itself. 8)
What am I doing wrong? This is lxbios 2.0.1.
