I don't know if the above are listed in an order that states these postcodes should be reported on the device or any order, but I do get the following reported on my postcard in order:

How does your POST card look like? Does it only display two digits or more? Or are the above numbers meant as a series of POST codes?
2 digits.
so...
80 88 E7
Has been the norm after specifying the interrupts and correcting the iobase of the ttyS0 port in auto.c
My latest build, will do the following after a warm reboot and yanking all by 1 sticking of memory:
80 88 E7 12 (or sometimes 11)
I don't know if this is progress or not. Or even if it's just encountering a memory bug before console init?
(also, why 0x80 but E7 without the "0x"?)
Just denoting hex as it's coded. :-/
Just got my other Bios Savior today for my Tyan S1832DL and will give this 440BX a try. No need to specify the SuperIO as I've already verified it's the same as the S1846 you've been working on.
So my S1832DL *should* give me something on serial without too much trouble.
I'll try to start building a new tree tomorrow.
Really, I don't see why the DFI P2XBL 440bx isn't giving output as it's been with it's SuperIO chip since LinuxBiosv1. All I can think of it's a bug before console init or bug with enabling early_ttyS0. :-/
