[coreboot] Getting started with Coreboot on Intel Core

[Karl-Heinz Nirschl]

Hi there,

i'm new to coreboot and trying to port coreboot to a intel core based
board. it's a u2500 with a ich7m and 945gm.
i started with kontron 986lcd-m which should be quite similar but
didn't have much success so far.

the board hangs with post code 0x23 (pci post card) which is bevor
"call	stage1_main" in model_6ex/cache_as_ram.inc.

as this is very early and the cpu never seem to come to stage1_main
(in cache_as_ram_disable.c) i assume i have a problem with my
toolchain.

I build on ubuntu 8.04 (Hardy Heron) with nothing special.

Any hints for a coreboot newbie? Which additional information could i
provide to find the problem?

Best Regards,

karl
