Hi!
I'm trying to get a working linuxbios on my Via epia m2 12000, with 1200mhz processor and 512mb ram.
The goal is to boot linux from a usbstick (guess i will be using filo and boot the device a uda1)
Yep. I haven't tried that on my board, but from IDE works just fine.
I've managed to extract my videobios image with awardeco and that gave me a videobios file which was exactly 57344byte, how can i apply this to my linuxbios.rom file?
Hm, this may not be the correct image. I'd suggest dumping the VGA BIOS from when the board is running Linux under the factor BIOS thusly:
I'd rather say the output from awardeco is correct. VideoBIOS has to padded later to 64k boundary. Dumping from live system may be incorrect for videorom bigger than 32k. Contact "Carl-Daniel U. Hailfinger" for details.
Thanks.
