Last weekend I was looking at installing LinuxBIOS on my Tyan S2462, and got to the point of building the romimage, but couldn't figure out how to flash it. devbios (from CVS) reported (in /proc/bios) that it was an unsupported Macronix part, and flash_rom (from linuxbios CVS) didn't appear to recognize it either.
you're going to love this. You have to use the setpci command to set the write enable for flash.
Better than that, what you should do is figure out how to make MTD work on this board and then tell me what you did, as I can never get it to work.
The drivers should appear to be in 2.4.19. So compile the mtdchar support, and the jedec_probe support, and the amd766rom support and it should work...
