coreboot and MSM800BEV

[Piotr Piwko]

Hello,

I am preparing the coreboot version for MSM800BEV board from Digital
Logic. This is the same branch as MSM800SEV board so, I've decided
that is a good starting point.

So, I built and loaded it to my flash memory and finally run.
Unfortunately, it stops at "Uncompressing coreboot to ram" message.
I've found that it hangs on calling the 'cbfs_and_run_core' function
which is in 'cpu/amd/model_lx/cache_as_ram.inc' file.

Is it a known issue? Maybe you can give my any hints to fix this situation?

Thank you in advance for your engagement.

PS. I have attached the log from my serial port

Dear Piotr,

Your SPD rom can not be read correctly, hence your RAM controller is  
not set up correctly...

This is very bad:
SMBUS READ ERROR:03 device:a2

You can run smbus test code in user mode on linux under standard bios,
but make sure your superio is the right one.
