Re: [LinuxBIOS] FW: rev F support code

[Lu, Yinghai]

Actually it is some problem with abuild. Maybe we need to create
Config-abuild.lb for all.

Some MBs (Tyan s2895, Serengeti_*) are using normal+fallback+failover...

And some MB only use Fallback.

right in v3 rather than fixing linker magic in v2

Hm. This sounds like the lowest-effort solution, right?

We dont want to become ueberartistic here, and instead try to fix
things in the upcoming v3 without any linker magic.

So we want Config-abuild for those

and for those as well?

Or unify all boards? (or is that an illusion?)

BTW: Config-abuild.lb should say

payload PAYLOAD

so that abuild can choose the payload during build time and replace it.
