Hi all,

         I have made the codes run into the vsmbios. And it hangs on pci_sanity_check(). Anyone has the same problems?

I have 2 questions:

1)      I have downloaded VSA code, and VSA implements a softVG, do I need to make a VGABIOS myself from linux?

2)      If I need a VGABIOS, where should I put it in the image??

         Thanks, any advice would be well appreciated.

主题: questions about VSA on Gx2 plus cs5535??

Hi all,

         I am running LinuxBIOS on gx2 and cs5535 platform. Now the code begins to enumerate devices in northbridge.

And the code hangs just after prints out _do_vsmbios_.

         I find the next function called close to that print is _unrv2b((uint8 *)rom, buffer, &ileg)_, and it seems that cpu is in dead loop.

I am thinking that maybe my linuxbios image is not correctly built. The step I build image is divided into 2:

         Firstly, I build out a _linuxbios.rom_ image;

         Secondly, I use _buildrom_ tool from util directory to build vsa2.bin and linuxbios.rom together out as the final image.

         My flash is 512KB, so I put vsa2.bin at 0xfff80000, and linuxbios.rom at another side of flash.

         Is my step correct??

         By the way, after I built out vsa image, it generates some other images, which one should I choose? Including: vsa2.bin, olpcXXX.bin, some vsms and so on….

         Any advice would be well appreciated.
