This is the first time that RAM beyond 1MB is seriously used. On other
Geode boards, some MSRs weren't set up early enough, so >1MB wasn't
reachable. http://patchwork.coreboot.org/patch/1485/ provides a partial
fix, but I suspect that the LX code has similar issues.


Hum, i'm not yet able to help here, I don't know sufficiently the LX chipset, nor do I have the time to dwell on this particular topic.

I have in mind a particular application for this board, and I want to be able to catch very early events (like a press on the only button on the mainboard and/or a series of power cycle (4 power cycles without booting the kernel for example) to trigger the boot of an alternate kernel/partition. I think of implementing this in a filo-derivative, which I should happily contribute, if it happens to interest someone.

For now, coreboot boots this board correctly.

Ah, one last thing: I posted the board support details for the Wiki in a previous post. Can someone with the rights to do so update it to reflect the support ?

Thanks.
