[LinuxBIOS] I855 raminit.c hang up - coreboot

29 Dec 2005


      Hi,
I have a board with an I852/ICH4 chipset (lspci output attached).
i am trying to get something up and running based on the
digitallogic/adl855pc board.
During memory initialization , in northbridge/intel/i855pm/raminit.c
the system hangs up in do_ram_command() when executing read32(dword) ,
where dword is 0x0000
Ram Enable 3
P:10
R:11
R:00000000
Is this a known problem ? Any tips ? If not,  I will just keep on
trying to find out what is wrong, but given my limited
knowledge/experience with initialization of memory controllers, it may
take me a long time.
Thanks,
