The safest way is still implementing a simple ACPI DSDT. Have a look at LinuxBIOSv2/src/mainboard/via/epia-m/dsdt.asl for a sample of doing IRQ routing in ACPI. Its not more complex than mptable+pirq
Will do, thanks for the info (especially the reference).
I've given up on that particular board, because slot a cpus are so rare these days,
Did you get RAM stable?
I never even got the southbridge working correctly, I could only get serial output after a soft reboot from the original bios. I suspect it might have been that I needed special cpu init for the k7, which is present in v1, but it isn't worth implementing in v2 just for this motherboard. AMD (as I'm sure some of you know) supplies docs for the k6 and k8 on cpu init, but doesn't for the k7, making things very difficult. The northbridge is the amd 751, which amd has also all but destroyed the docs on, so I decided it was time to find another toy, and a dual p3 is definitely a better toy :D
