      So magic is
default K8_SB_HT_CHAIN_ON_BUS0=0
it will put SB chain on bus 0.
Also need one extra entry in irq_table so your HTX card showed on lspci.

Hi
after a few months of work we (my mentor Mondrian Nuessle and me)
managed to get Iwill DK8HTX board running.
Porting LinuxBIOS to "DK8HTX" was part of an academic project. Main
goal was to get the htx socket running together with our htx fpga
board: 
http://hypertransport.org/products/productdetail.cfm?RecordID=75
Right now we have all on-board devices working. Even xorg shows up. Only
exception is native vga-bios. It gets loaded but just a few lines of
LB-boot 
are printed. Anyway at least our HTX adaptor card is working :)
We also plan to contribute to the LB-Project by offering a walk
through / tutorial that should explain step by step how to get LB
running with DK8HTX.
thx, for all your help! LinuxBIOS is great :).

YH,
Thanks for the suggestion. I decreased LOG level to 8, and did not see
"IDE1 IDE0 PCI: 00:07.1 init" in the LOG. Then I hacked amd8111_ide.c
now I see "IDE1 IDE0 PCI: *01:04.3* init" in the log. And still the
IDE
...
timeout happens in FILO... but this is not suprising since it looks
like
...
the wrong PCI address is assigned to IDE(?) If so, do you know how to
correct this?
Thanks,
Chris
...
Please decrease that LOG level to 8.
And you should got
PCI:00:07.1 init
IDE1
IDE0
in your log output.
If it still doesn't work, hardcode amd8111_ide.c to enable ide
device
...
...
directly.

I added these lines and recompiled, but it still does not work.
Maybe
...

there is still something else missing? I will re-check PCI
configuration
...
...
in MB's Config.lb, must still be an error in there...
...
Check serengeti_leopard or tyan/s2881 etc  MB Config.lb to add two
lines
...
to enable your IDE devices.

No, those lines are not there in MB Config... I serach for 'ide0'
and
...

find nothing... where exactly do they go in the file?

Please check if you have register "ide0_enable"="1"  in MB
Config.lb

Hi YH,
I checked  MB Config.lb as you suggested. From lspci I know my IDE
controller is here:
00:07.1 IDE interface: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] AMD-8111 IDE
(rev
...
...
...

Yet I do not see 00:07.1 mentioned in the MB Config.lb in the
southbridge section. Maybe this is the issue... , maybe IDE is not
configured since SATA would be mostly used? (My SATA drive is
recognized, but has XP on it :| -- it is presenlty disconnected).
I also included AMD 3111 chip.h below, which looks ok. I have not
modified either file at all.
If you see an error please let me know...
Thanks,
Chris

Check your MB Config.lb to see if amd8111 is under correct 0.18.0
link.
