Hi all,
I have been reading up on Linuxbios, and with 2 motherboards from Intel that I'd like to use for this project, I feel it is time to start up.
How complicated is it to adapt Linuxbios to these two boards? Has it been done (did not find any indicatons for this searching the list and reading the doc), and if not, what's missing.
These boards uses the 865G chipset with gigabit ethernet through CSA and Intel specifies: 82801EB I/O Controller HUB (ICH5) 82802AB 4Mbit Firmware Hub 82865G Graphics and Memory Controller Hub Analog devices AD1985 Audio codec LPC Bus I/O Controller (both SMSC LPC47M172 and National Semiconductor PC87372 are listen) Gigabit ethernet using Intel 82547EI PLC (over CSA)
All according to the documentation ftp://download.intel.com/design/motherbd/lc/C3263401.pdf
