RE: EPIA-M - which board for freebios2?

Thanks for the info. I'll probably give it a try w/V1 and see how it
goes.

What V2 errors do you see? Is anyone attempting to fix the V2 epia
errors?

I'm using the EPIA M10000:
      vt8623 northbridge (CLE266) and vt8235 southbridge.
I haven't been able to get V2 to compile as yet for it.
V1 compiles and runs properly but AGP doesn't work.  
I can't seem to find the right way to setup the GART and GATT. Without
the datasheets, what can I do? Without AGP support, Xwindows will run
but playing videos or doing 3D will crash the system. Also, I'm not sure
how to setup the video encoder. I wouldn't recommend the EPIA M10000
simply because VIA has been anything but free and open with the specs.
However, that's what I'm 
using until something better comes along.  Good luck.

I've been able to get V2 to compile, but the box hangs at boot with no
output. I'm not very familar (at all) with the low level workings of this
stuff. Ron from LANL has mentioned that he's going to find time to work on
this soon, but that hasn't happened yet.

it's on a list, but Pentium-M comes first.
