For even more fun I have had a hardware glitch that caused the the memory size to be set to 0 after initializing it, properly. The copy succeeded when I had no ram at all. Of course I couldn't execute the LinuxBIOS code.
Have you enabled the serial port?
I have enabled the serial port, but no console message so far. Perhaps, my bigger challenge is to get access to documentation for this board. It's manufactured by Portwell (NAD-2050), but there is very data that is available on their site or from the live techsupport contact.
There is a file ramtest.inc that you can included that will do a basic sanity check on the ram to see if is working. Usually that is a help when brining up a new port.
I haved tried including ramtest.inc, but without serial port output, it's difficult to tell. BTW: I'm attaching my lspci output and config file for reference. I'm going to do more due-dilligence on SDRAM initialization before I have more progress to report.
