Hello,

         I used the buildrom tool, but the norwich board uses the companion serial and my board uses SUPERIO WINBOND w83267hf. So, I modified the code of /mainboar/amd/norwich/cache_as_ram_auto.c to work with this chip.
        It worked fine, but the boot process stop with :

Before VSA:
do_vsmbios

       I'm not including the vsa in the linuxbios.rom, is that the problem? And how can I concatenate the two files correctly?

Regards,

Otávio Alcântara

Are you using buildrom?

http://linuxbios.org/Buildrom

It is recommended to use it for LX systems. It should handle putting the
VSA image with the LB binary to make the complete image.
