[LinuxBIOS] how about the support of Tyan s2915 in LinuxBIOS

[Ning (Michael) Qu]

Hi, all,

We want to use LinuxBIOS on Tyan s2915. Is there anyone who has
similiar experience? Is it well supported by LinuxBIOS? v1 or v2?
Thanks very much!

Best,
Michael

No, it's not supported out of the box. Please check the list of
supported mainboards:

http://linuxbios.org/Supported_Motherboards

It doesn't use any of the currently supported chipsets AFAICS, so it
won't be easy to add support for it, either. Sorry.

Many other Tyan mainboards are supported, though (see above URL).

Hi,

Thanks very much! It seems that I should select one from the list...
