How can I find the maximum PCI bus number of the system?
we can define the set of things that seabios needs to know and pass them on from coreboot.
Personally, I would prefer textual attribute-value pairs, since binary structs have a lot of problems (version, etc. etc.)
How about device tree?
Again, check out /usr/src/linux/Documentation/powerpc/booting-without-of.txt at kernel source near you.
Either get it from the device tree if it is still available or do the scan yourself. Note that you should use the numbers you find already set in the bridges. Don't just increment a count as you find bridges. Marc
