The image resulting from abuild should work on real hardware. If the board comes with 1024K rom, choosing that size is a good idea.
I'll do that, then. (I am using the 512K image on real hardware today, but I'm padding it with a 512K empty lead-in when programming the vendor-supplied flash. The config file briefly mentions this.)
Side note: the original s2912 port generates a 512K image, as far as I can see. Since the same board is supposed to work in both the previous and fam10 configurations, I'm not sure how we should deal with that.
Hm, Tyan's BIOS downloads appear to be 1M as well...
Just change it to 1M. I had to do that for the s2881, s2882, s2891, etc. I don't know why those were all in the tree with 512K; all the ones we have came to us with a 1M chip.
Thanks, Ward.
