Hi,
Stefan Reinauer :
It is a geode based system, so my guess is yes, LinuxBIOS can run.
Okay, thanks ! Since I know absolutely nothing regarding hardware, I have no idea about what geode is. Could you please explain how you know the system is geode based ? Are there good pointers I should have a look to ?
Geode is the CPU/SoC series used in the system. Originally manufactured by National Semiconductors and/or Cyrix, AMD bought the technology and improved it. It's not exactly an "easy" CPU/chipset, but it has been supported by LinuxBIOS since quite some time.
Is the bios chip of that board socketed or soldered on?
