DBM690T booting windows xp

[Wang, Qingpei]

Hi all,

I am stilling trying to booting windows xp with dbm690t. It still
did no progress now. I attached the dmesg from linux and full

Coreboot log and the acpidumpfile data.txt.I just hardcoded the high
table to (((1024-128)*1024*1024)-64*1024) for there is 1GB memory and

Top 128M are reserved for video.

Hi,

Maybe the _CRS resource is wrong. I hardcoded it. Please apply the a.patch to 
your dsdt. And try again.

I am getting very strange memory accesses above 4 GB on my 690G/SB600
board (2 GB RAM installed) and I believe your problem may be related.

Can you please add mminit_loglevel=4 acpi.debug_level=0x10807 to your
Linux kernel command line and post the Linux dmesg here?

Regards,

Hi carl-daniel,
    The attach is the dmesg output file. I am thinking if there is
any other tools to debug acpi?

Rudolf, 
    I used the patch, it seems doesn't work now. Any other advices?

Please enable CONFIG_ACPI_DEBUG=y for your kernel and attach dmesg
again. Otherwise, ACPI debug will not work.

acpiexec is a great tool to debug ACPI.

again. Otherwise, ACPI debug will not work.

[Jason Wang] is it enabled with the boot parameters?or I need to rebuild the
kernel?

You have to rebuild the kernel.
