Is my mainboard supported by Coreboot?

[Larry G. Vidrine]

I have an Asus K8N-DL mainboard with nvidia CK-804 chipset. I canonly find A8N 
boards with CK-804 chipset in the list of supported boards.

My question is: is my mainboard supported by Coreboot?

You did not provide the lspci and other required info as mentioned on the wiki, but with a NVIDIA chip I can be pretty sure when I say no, as they do not provide the necessary info for there chips to be supported.

Is my mainboard Asus K8N-DL with Nvidia CK804 chipset supported by Coreboot?

Please take a look at the FAQ entry »Will coreboot work on my
machine?« [1].

Well the Nvidia CK804 is an except with the MCP55 [2][3].

Larry, what is your background knowledge? If the other components are
already supported composing an image should work. I do not know how well
tested the latest coreboot revisions are though for the listed boards.
So you would have to do some testing. Do you already have backup flash
chips [4]?

Thanks,
