ram init

[Gin Lin]

Does anyone know if the raminit.c under intel/E7501 is stable enough? I am 
having a problem with the system reseting when it jumps to the first address 
in the ram. Could the procedures of writing NorthBrige registers have 
problems?

thanks,
Gin

Greetings,

It's been a while since I've looked at it, but when I last looked, it did
sometimes need power cycled to restart. I worked around that by making the
kernel reboot by writing 0x0e to port 0xcf9. That causes the southbridge
to do a 3 second power off.

G'day,

Tyan/s2735

[Gin]

Steven,
Thanks for the info. I've got the ram up by filling the some values in
North Bridge(I reference a regular bios).

I have an essential question about the code base for Tyan/s2735. Has it
ever successfully built and run on that board? I have to make sure the
code I am currently building our board on is good.

Thanks

Tyan/s2735

[Steven James]

Greetings,

I have successfully used the v1 code on that board. Things have been in
flux since then, and I haven't had time to test a recent CVS checkout or
the v2 tree.

Tyan/s2735

[Gin]

Thanks Steven,
Do you think you will have time testing this on V2 tree? I've been
working on that code base and keep having problems with it.

Greetings,

I'm pretty snowed in for the next couple of weeks, but after that I hope
to get myself up to speed on v2.
