I've never actually built s4882, but it should have worked. Can you build Coreboot for any other boards?
I have not tried, but I have no other computers I want to run continuously for main use in the next few months.
you could try buildrom if you want a simple way of trying a different build. svn co svn://svn.coreboot.org/buildrom/buildrom-devel make menuconfig make
I did that, then did not see Opterons listed in it or on coreboot.org/buildrom/.
Configure it for platform tyan s2892 and payload grub2.
If that doesn't work, or if that works and you still can't build for the s4882, we'll have to figure something else out
I thought I read in the archives that someone patched coreboot for s4882 when it was (nearly) new (2005) and said that it worked for it and many other boards.
