It is possible your geodes are newer and there is something we are doing wrong for the part.
It is also possible that a "reset" from linux on coreboot is not "complete" enough, as it might be on the embedded bios. In my case I would start there.
Good point. The bios has a number of ways to cause a reset that coreboot doesn't have. I don't know how many different ways Linux will attempt a reset. If it always works when you hit the reset button, you will need to look at the software reset path.
When linux does the reset, is the coreboot output the same? Does it do the "Resetting the processor"?
A few things you can look at are a memory test prior to the wbind and you can also try dumping the MC registers to see if they are getting setup differently on the failing case.
