Hi guys, I've added some debug and it seems the elfboot code cannot read the ROM. Every byte it tries to access is 0xff. It's a 512k rom chip and elfboot tries to access 0xfffe0000-0xfffeffff. Any clues on how to fix that?
Indeed, elfboot couldn't read the rom..., because it wasn't mapped to virtual memory. With that fixed, it loads filo, which boots linux successfully . Still some more devices need to get functional, but the main thing works... great!
Awesome, congrats! And great that your biggest issue was the southbridge, it's normally the northbridge and memory init that's the hardest part.
Thanks to all you people helping me out. Daniel
Sorry I couldn't be more help, just read your last message about the rom not being read, had I seen it earlier I might've saved you some time.
