Hi,
http://www.coreboot.org/ACPI_in_coreboot Check this.
I know that site, but that is ATM not the problem i'm going to address. (This will happen later on.)
The problem which actually exists on M57SLI is, that one PCI port and the PCI-16x port isn't working correctly. Therefore it's necessary to fix the mptable.c file, so that those ports will be initialized correctly from coreboot.
Like Peter said, it should be possible to get the right values which are needed in the mptable.c out of the vendors DSDT file, but my problem is right now, that i don't know the ACPI specifications (DSDT parts) that good, to be able to find out which parts of the DSDT are relevant for fixing the PCI issues on M57SLI.
All you need is to get the information for _PRT method routings. Then you can construct some minimalistic DSDT as I did for m2v-mx.
Good that you mention that again, maybe i shall look out for the _PRT symbols on the vendors DSDT, which i also attached. Maybe you can give a look at that file, and give me a hint which parts are relevant to fix my problem.
If you need help, just write/ask here.

Thanks.
Kind regards Harald
