Ok. I'm kind of annoyed at myself now.
Your thread revealed the answer. The stock bios will boot if the dimm is in either slot. Coreboot will only boot if it is in the outermost one. It never occurred to me to try this.
The board now boots to the OS. More details to follow later this evening or tomorrow morning.
Thanks, -Matt

Hi,
In the spirit of board report coverage, I pulled out the (used, but new to me) AM1I-A I have and spent a day or two trying to install the latest coreboot on it.
The board boots fine under the stock bios, and returns to working order if flashed with my backup, but shows little signs of life with coreboot.
Along the way I extracted and included the vgabios rom, as well as tried with a nivida card, so I'm pretty sure that's not it.
I tried having it save the console output to flash, but that made the build fail. [1]
Yesterday evening I noticed it was configured by default to use open-source init (and for some reason the build finishes without error), but as far as I know that doesn't exist for family 16h. Switching to BinaryPI causes the build to fail. [2] 3rd party blobs are cloned and enabled.
I'm running an Athlon 5250, or something of that nature, with a couple of gigs of ram on one dimm. My current .config is [3].
Sincerely, -Matt
