Hi Juergen,
Is it that you don't have the superio (or whatever it's called) parallel/serial card for the Capio, or does Coreboot not recognize it? I have the card, I just need to know how to use it for debugging, or even if I can.
Have you tried FILO with your Capio? I got the same result with it which makes me wonder if the problem is something other than the 82559.

Hi,
I'm new to Coreboot, but I've been able to get a BIOS burned and sort of working. I'm working with a Capio II 320 (see specs below) and I've
tried
using the "Axus TC320" and "ASI MB-5BLMP" build tutorials since the CPU
and
chipsets are so similar. I've also tried using Etherboot and FILO as the payloads with the same results. The ASI tutorial starts up and
initializes
the network interface, but I never get any video. With the Axus TC320 tutorial, I get video, the network interface is initialized, and I get a splash screen, but that's where it stops. When using Etherboot I can see that the Capio starts to boot from my network boot server and then
stops.
Is there a way I can get console output with the Axus TC320 setup? If I could see what's going on I might be able to fix it.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Sounds like my CAPIO Boundless II. I also tried this to boot via coreboot, but without success. There is no serial device available on this target for debugging purposes and the 82559 seems special as the standard etherboot for this device fails also.
Getting a console with coreboot might help for coreboot, but etherboot for example cannot use it. So if etherboot fails you will stick at the same point.
