I found the HIGH_TABLES bug on the DBM690T.
The K8 HIGH_TABLES code places these tables in UMA video memory. Of course that memory is cleared by some payloads and operating systems.
However, if I fix that, Linux still crashes during boot because it only sees 32 MB instead of 2 MB RAM.
Unless you're using SeaBIOS, you have to use both HAVE_HIGH_TABLES and HAVE_LOW_TABLES to have things work, otherwise the high tables aren't found. 32 MB is a good sign that the tables weren't found, so FILO (I think) defaults to "safe" 32MB.
I'm running an old version of FILO. Could you please take a look at the amd/dbm690t target and tell me what I have to enable there (HAVE_LOW_TABLES etc.) to have things work? I can probably get access to the hardware later today.
Thanks!
