Hello
We using an SST/Pflash 512KB FWH device. I think SST is getting away from all FWH but could be wrong.
Glad to hear the YAFFS2+NAND+IDE will be good. Although, I don't seem to see the NAND over IDE MTD driver in my kernel tree. Need to keep looking for that one....

Is anyone aware of a 2Mbyte PLCC32 BIOS flash prom that can be used with the AMD LX800 / CS5536?
Yes, at least SST have parts that fit.
Depending on if you need LPC or FWH you can get the SST49LF160C or SST49LF016C parts. One of them is dual mode (both LPC and FWH) and the other does only one mode, but I forget which is which. Unfortunately the data sheets are not very clear on this. :\
Which part is your system using at the moment? That will indicate if you need LPC or FWH.
I would like to use coreboot V2 to directly launch the Linux kernel as an ELF payload and then use a YAFFS2 filesystem to access a NAND flash on the IDE bus.
That should work beautifully!
