[LinuxBIOS] new guy in LinuxBios

[crepin christophe]

Hi,

I am a new guy in LinuxBios and the start up is not easy .

I Have several questions :

I search a documentation that explain the structure of the file config.ld presents in the directory of my main board because I don’t understand how I must define the link PCI for the Northbridge and the Southbridge.

I want to know if linuxbios support the Intel IONA processor or if it’s equivalent at Intel XEON processor for the APIC management.

Thank a lot .

an old document that describes part of it is here:
http://openbios.org/LinuxBIOS-AMD64.pdf

(If someone has time left, please go ahead and enhance and update the
document)

ouch. The i-word. At the current point in time it has been hard to
impossible for some people here to get the information required to get 
Intel systems to work properly with LinuxBIOS. Note: AMD, VIA, and some
older Intel chips work fine.

Intel folks on this list: Is there any chance to get the required
information for LinuxBIOS? We have so many people asking and we keep
repeating the same story.

Best regards,
Stefan
