Hi,

your config.lb points at

chip superio/ite/it8705f

can you verify if this is actually what you have on your board?
My epia has vt1211 for example.
There's not much set-up needed to initialise serial port, and it's rather straight forward.

did you try to actually write it to flash and boot up, or just under qemu?

Don't worry, my first few builds failed (dead MB), but finally I
got it working.


Everything builds fine. But no ouput.
Running the bios with
qemu -L ~ -fda fdosorig.img -nographic
Serial controller not found

Post your config.lb
