Hello, I am looking at adding a new target for the Asus K8N-DRE Nvidia CK804 board (http://www.asus.com/product.aspx?P_ID=qF4qMu1w9HDZjIvt). Most of the CK804 boards code is pretty much the same. How much of it is mainboard independent? Looks like all components are already supported by coreboot (CPU's, CK804, and SuperIO). This being my first AMD board any key tips would be great... like how to find gpios...etc. Too bad there is no public datasheet for CK804....
Also is PCIE-1x and PCIE-16x both working on the CK804?

Doing a port for a ck804 board isn't much different from another chipset.

Yes, though that has to be configured on a board specific basis.
