It would be helpful if others could try installing / booting win-xp on real hardware. If you can do this, please follow the directions at:

I must be missing something, because my boot fails with this message on my s2892:
[...]
move mptable from 0x20 to 0xfffffc00, size 0xdff03e0
That message should never occur if one were to apply the patch in the email from the url above. Basically, the mptabling moving should have gotten disabled by the '#if 0' change.
BTW: when I was trying to get XP to boot before, I was having timing problems. Have you tested the timer tick with factory BIOS and coreboot?
As far as I know it works - SeaBIOS will enable the timer during its post stage.
