Linuxbios for VIA EPIA motherboards?

[Nicholas Mistry]

I was wondering what is the status of the support on VIA EPIA motherboards w/
LinuxBIOS.

I have dug through the archives quite a bit, and found that there has been
someintrest w/ supporting the boards.  Unfortunately i have not found any
information as to howfar along it has gone.

Thanks

a couple of us are looking at it, but it will still be a month or so.

Who has actually managed to do what so far? I might have some time to 
work on it, and I have a bunch of them. Is anything in cvs?

yes there is a mainboard set up in cvs.

I had this chipset working a few years ago, but it was somewhat buggy --
or else the motherboard was. Let's hope the new one will work well. It
sure looks like a nice piece of hardware.
