Tiger MPX

[Jarmo Tulonen]

Hello

I've been testing LinuxBIOS on Tyan's Tiger MPX, using etherboot as 
payload, but with no luck so far. Nothing is output to the serial port and 
nothing sent to the ethernet so I guess I must have something fundamentally
wrong.

Steven : I used as configuration the file "example-normal.config" that you
provided, just replacing the path to etherboot, and the files under 
.../mainboard/tyan/TigerMPX without modification.
I've understood that you tested it on a similar board (or was it the "-4M" 
version ?)

Any ideas how to proceed ?

Greetings,

It's confusion over the image names. The fallback image is the one you
want. Fallback has the actual power on reset vector. When normal boot is
configured in CMOS, the fallback image jumps into the 'normal' image early
in the setup. Should that image fail, the next time through, fallback does
it all itself. I should document this!

G'day,
