MSI K8T Master2 Far Support

[Luís Claro]

Hi,

I'm new to coreboot. But I wish coreboot to support motherboard MSI K8T 
Master2 Far. I'm available to help testing, and do some code also.  For now I 
just need some guidelines, should I start compile the rom from coreboot v3 ou 
v2?

Here is the specifications of motherboard:

MSI K8T Master2 Far
Chipsets Via K8T800, Via VT8237
Super I/O Winbond W83622THF
Flash Rom - SST 49LF040 4Mb / 512kB
