PX10000G aka Pico ITX

[elkton gen]

Hi,

I'm doing a project for my car and would like to have a very quick
booting system, therefore coreboot would be ideally suited.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pico-ITX#PX10000G is the device I'm
targeting but you don't seem to support this, I would like to add this
device, it has:

VIA VX700 Chipset (you only support VX800 or CX700)
VIA C7-M Processor.
VIA VT6106S
VIA VT1708A

By the looks of it only the CPU is support.  So a bit of work to be done...

If anybody can point me to any datasheets for these parts and/or a
contact at VIA who might be helpful in getting access to the
information I require this, would be great.

Elkton.

Yes, but I believe VX700 is similar to CX700 so it may not be that
much.

Neither VT6106 ethernet nor VT1708 codec needs coreboot support.

If there is a superio chip you may need to add support for that.

I suggest that you start working from an existing board in coreboot
which uses the cx700 code.

There are no such contacts at VIA but there is a lot of information
available online, and please feel free to ask on this mailing list!
