Hi
I am not able to go beyound "Jumping to LinuxBIOS".Initially i thought it is a DRAM problem. But ram test passes. I am also able to read/write from/to RAM.So i guess my jump is not working. But i am not able to find out. So, Can anybody see the register dump which is taken before the jmp *%edi.
LinuxBIOS-"2.0.0"".fallback" "Fri Mar 23 18:28:27 IST 2007" starting... Copying LinuxBIOS to RAM. Printing eax=00003333 Printing ebx=ffffd14a Printing ecx=00000000 Printing edx=ffff03f8 Printing esi=ffff7092 Printing edi=00004000 Printing cs=00000008 Printing ds=00000010 End of Register dump
Sorry, this log contains no information useful for debugging the problem.
From the log it seems no memory init is done at all?
Is this still the vt8601 northbridge board? what southbridge? In one of your previous mails you wrote 82C686, in another one VT8231?
You don't post any code that would allow people to help you debug the problem.
The memory test in auto.c is not qualifying. If that jmp does not work, your memory does not work. It really is that simple. This can be frustrating, don't despair.
Have you compared northbridge register dumps between linuxbios and the legacy bios?
