OK.
Unfortunately, I didn't get a successful boot. I didn't try appending the VGA chunk yet. Maybe I'll need to, in order to have any hope of debugging though, since I'm not getting any serial console output at all.
I hope we don't have SATA performance issues with the S2892.. that would
probably prevent us from using coreboot.
So far it's just me seeing that, on one specific board (s2891). So don't worry about that too much just yet.
True, I'll cross that bridge when I get there.
First I'll need to be able to boot, period. So far, what I've done is this:
1. Subversion checkout of latest buildrom 2. make menuconfig, specifying Tyan S2892, 32-bit LAB 3. make
Do I need to do further configuration (Config.lb etc)? I thought that the menuconfig took care of everything. Maybe that was wishful thinking..
