Dear coreboot users,
Keith is doing a tremendous job adding support for early CBMEM to boards with the Intel 440BX chipset [1]. Understandably, he can only do tests on the few boards he has access to, so it’s up to us, the community, to do the tests on the other boards on upload the results to the board status repository.
Here is the list.
``` $ git grep NORTHBRIDGE_INTEL_I440BX src/mainboard/ src/mainboard/a-trend/atc-6220/Kconfig: select NORTHBRIDGE_INTEL_I440BX src/mainboard/a-trend/atc-6240/Kconfig: select NORTHBRIDGE_INTEL_I440BX src/mainboard/abit/be6-ii_v2_0/Kconfig: select NORTHBRIDGE_INTEL_I440BX src/mainboard/asus/p2b-d/Kconfig: select NORTHBRIDGE_INTEL_I440BX src/mainboard/asus/p2b-ds/Kconfig: select NORTHBRIDGE_INTEL_I440BX src/mainboard/asus/p2b-f/Kconfig: select NORTHBRIDGE_INTEL_I440BX src/mainboard/asus/p2b-ls/Kconfig: select NORTHBRIDGE_INTEL_I440BX src/mainboard/asus/p2b/Kconfig: select NORTHBRIDGE_INTEL_I440BX src/mainboard/asus/p3b-f/Kconfig: select NORTHBRIDGE_INTEL_I440BX src/mainboard/azza/pt-6ibd/Kconfig: select NORTHBRIDGE_INTEL_I440BX src/mainboard/biostar/m6tba/Kconfig: select NORTHBRIDGE_INTEL_I440BX src/mainboard/compaq/deskpro_en_sff_p600/Kconfig: select NORTHBRIDGE_INTEL_I440BX src/mainboard/gigabyte/ga-6bxc/Kconfig: select NORTHBRIDGE_INTEL_I440BX src/mainboard/gigabyte/ga-6bxe/Kconfig: select NORTHBRIDGE_INTEL_I440BX src/mainboard/msi/ms6119/Kconfig: select NORTHBRIDGE_INTEL_I440BX src/mainboard/msi/ms6147/Kconfig: select NORTHBRIDGE_INTEL_I440BX src/mainboard/msi/ms6156/Kconfig: select NORTHBRIDGE_INTEL_I440BX src/mainboard/nokia/ip530/Kconfig: select NORTHBRIDGE_INTEL_I440BX src/mainboard/soyo/sy-6ba-plus-iii/Kconfig: select NORTHBRIDGE_INTEL_I440BX src/mainboard/tyan/s1846/Kconfig: select NORTHBRIDGE_INTEL_I440BX ```
Please speak up, if you have access to such a board. If have such a board, but you are not able to do the tests, it might be possible to donate and send the board to someone, who would be willing to do so.
The European coreboot convention [1] is only weeks away, so that would be also an event, where the tests could be carried out.
Please, also speak up, if you know a board in the list, was never publicly available, and is not used anymore, so can be removed.
Please don’t forget to thank Keith, Kyösti, and Aaron for the work.
Thanks,
Paul
