ADLO

[Xavier Pegenaute]

Hi,

i want to try with ADLO, but at the moment i can't find MS7308E, i think 
that may be i can find this motherboard MS7308ET, but use a different 
chipset SIS630ET any one tryed with this one ?

Thanks.
Xavi.

Greetings,

For the most part, the 630ET chipset is compatible with the 630. The big
difference I have seen is that the builtin sis900 ethernet gets it's MAC
address from CMOS rather than a seperate EEPROM. The following code
fragment demonstrates:

i = read_config_byte(0x80000848);

write_config_byte(0x80000848, 0x50);

printf("CMOS eth0 hwaddr");

for(i=9; i<15; i++) {
                outb(i,0x70);
                cache = inb(0x71);

printf(":%02x", cache);
        }

write_config_byte(0x80000848, 0x10);

G'day,
sjames

Do you know if there is some patch for this ?

Thanks.
