I have a dumb question about DoC with LinuxBIOS. Today, I have requested to port LinuxBIOS on EPIA-M board equipped with DoC module. Though I have ported LinuxBIOS to several boards, I have no knowledge and experience regarding DoC.
The board have seperated 2Mbit flash for BIOS and 32MByte DoC connected to ISA bus. Therefore I want to put LinuxBIOS on the normal flash part and put linux on the DoC.
My question is 'What should I do to do this?'.
After reading some documents from M-sys and this mailling list about DoC, I'm a little confused. M-sys claim it is compatible with normal HDD and recognized as disk drive without any software. Then what is the problem when it comes with LinuxBIOS? If my understanding is correct, it has built in software driver which must be executed from the normal BIOS environment. Is that correct?. Then again, what should I do to fetch kernel from DoC. should I use ALDO or Do I need something like BDK from M-Sys?
Any comment, help will be very thankful.
