I don't see this problem.

I found that in my Makefile, which was generated without error by 
/NLBConfig.py, the path for two files is just /../freebios/mainboard.c and 
/../freebios/irq_tables.c

Aren't they supposed to be at 
/../freebios/src/mainboard/via/epia/mainboard.c and 
/../freebios/src/mainboard/via/epia/irq_tables.c?

Is my config file the cause? Here it is (it's just the latest that was 
checked in by Ron, just yesterday):

That's right.  irq_tables.c and mainboard.c should be at
freebios/src/mainboard/via/epia.

What about your linuxbios config file?  Are you using the example.config in
epia's dir?
Do you have mainboard and target setup right?

This looks a lot like the paths have not been set for the mainboard files.

See what the path for mainboard.c is in the Makefile.
