Yip, I have start the system with vga=normal and taken a fresh vga.bios extracted with awardeco from the original factory bios. (The old one was definitivly corrupt)
yes, vga bios is often self modifying code. I fell like back on the Amiga or C64 seeing that stuff.
btw. flashbios seems unable to handle WINBOND W29C020
What's the ID? Can you run flashrom -V and mail the output to this list or to me directly.
./testbios --abseg /dev/mem -s 32768 aw512n.bin
I get 3 columns of output, which stops after 1-2 seconds The screen seems froozen, but at the bottom I have 3 blinking "cursors" I can do what I want, only a Hardreset takes effect ;)
What output? Are you sure aw512n is the vga bios image?
I will try to pipe the output, but this is hard on a readonly filesystem :D
uh, why is it readonly? you could log in via serial port from another machine and log the output in your terminal program... That always works.
