I am trying (again) to get the Adaptec SCSI on my P2B-LS to initialize properly with coreboot. But it won't boot.
Attached is a serial log of what happened.
After compiling coreboot I checked out SeaBIOS through git and added the SCSI option rom extracted from my factory bios. A port and a few other resources is assigned, but no IRQ. The SCSI option rom would initialize, I can press the hotkey to enter the utility, but that's it. That option rom hangs before getting any responses from the SCSI hardware.
You want to see what happens during execution. Can you create a separate git tree ( git clone git://git.seabios.org/seabios.git <dirname_of_choice> ) where you run "make menuconfig" in, then set CONFIG_DEBUG_LEVEL to 8 (make menuconfig > debugging > debug level) ? Have a look at the other options too, maybe. Add the resulting file (out/bios.bin.elf) as the payload.
I am trying to set up SerialICE to see what is going on. Just looking for some insights before I reach that point.
I have to jumper off the SCSI to get it to boot. I don't know if this has anything to do but the Ultra2 port on my other P2B-LS is fubared and nothing plugged there would register. Afraid the same may befall this board too.
I have an unused dawicontrol dc-974 (scsi2 ?) that I should try booting off.
Thanks Keith
