[LinuxBIOS] DK8-HTX hangs on boot

[Chris Stillo]

Followup to my earlier postings regarding DK8-HTX hanging on boot...

The issue was due to improperly programmed flash. The (existing, legacy)
BIOS was configured to lock-out a portion of the flash from being
programmed. Once this BIOS setting was changed, the flash programming
was successful.

No patches to the code... actually we only changed a CMOS setting in the
AMI BIOS used to boot when we program the flash.
