intel 854 chipset support / IP1150

Hi,

What is the current status/plan for intel 854 chipset based devises? The reason is, that I have one Tatung STB5000, which looks like IP1150 "copy" except the CPU is intel 1,4GHz and no CF, but bios chip (SST 47LF008A) is used. It would be very nice to be able, to build multimedia box based on linux.

Hello Juraj,
Yes, coreboot support for the i854, Thomson IP1150, and Tatung 5000 is
coming. Work in progress is going on behind the scenes. Patients is a
virtue my friend. I could use some help if your interested...
