I've just downloaded and built SeaBIOS ready to use with CoreBoot on my old MSI 6119 motherboard. Unfortunately, CoreBoot is stopping with a build error in src/lib/uart8250.c with an undeclared CONFIG_TTYS0_BASE error on line 83. I have checked and serial console output is definitely disabled in menuconfig.
Any ideas why? I'm using the latest svn checkout, many thanks!
I think disabling serial console is not supported at this point.
OK, thanks for that one, I've now built CoreBoot and flashed it onto my MSI 6119 motherboard. Using serial console I can see the following
core-boot-4.0-r5601 Tue Jun 1 14:41:35 BST 2010 starting... SMBus controller enabled
I have the SeaBIOS built as a payload. The strange thing is that there seems to be no video. I'll try swapping graphic cards out and see if I can get video.
Can the serial console be used as a way to reload firmware if necessary?
