Hi All, Is anyone aware of a rom image of V2 that is available for the Via EPIA-V8000 or an updated Tutorial on setting up V2 on this board?
You should use the via/epia mainboard for this one. It features a PLE133 northbridge (which is the VT8601), and a VT8231 southbridge.
You might find http://www.linuxbios.org/data/lbdoc/ or http://www.linuxbios.org/index.php/The_EPIA-M/MII useful, though both are for the Epia-M, not the Epia-V.
We are very interested in getting a Howto (http://www.linuxbios.org/index.php/Documentation)
So if you go down the road of trying LinuxBIOS on this board, please document what you do, while you do it (as people tend to forget what they did afterwards, which is why there are not many howtos)
We're working on a method of providing precompiled, verified-working LinuxBIOS images on the LinuxBIOS website, but it's still in development.
Important: Get yourself a serial null modem cable and a backup flash chip before starting, so you don't have to erase your factory bios before you make sure everything is working correctly.
