Any further updates on Intel contributions to the source tree
regarding the sandybridge arch. particularly the C600 chip-set for the
current Dual Xeon boards.
Seen as Supermicro mainly has the monopoly on these type of high end
boards now coreboot would reach a massive market with support for this
chip-set.
I have tried to get coreboot working on the X9DAi board but without
luck, well i say that but i did get it to boot. cant seem to get all
elements of the board working though. TPM dont seem to work if the
module has not already had its ownership claimed. Trying to get data
sheets on how to put that into the coreboot source seems impossible.
I think Intel need put in a bit more regarding this hence my question.
Also i am having difficulty getting the memory interleave working, i
think it might be a kernel issue or graphics driver rather than
coreboot, seems like they try to read the conventional memory model
and addressing gets messed up somewhere, somehow. just thought i would
mention it.
