OK. Another snapshot. What worries me is the per-cpu timeslice cutoff being listed as 0 usecs. The 'kernel bug' means that either the APIC is not on still or that we don't set boot_cpu_id correctly; the line is: if (GET_APIC_ID(apic_read(APIC_ID)) != boot_cpu_id) BUG(); Furthermore, if I skip the check, I get the following message: APIC error interrupt on CPU#0, should never happen.. ... APIC ESR0: 00000080. ... APIC ESR1: 00000080. ... bit 7: Illegal Register Address.. APIC error interrupt on CPU#0, should never happen.. ... APIC ESR0: 00000080. ...

Where can I find information about the status of the project? I looked at the website, but I didn't see much there. Specifically, how far along is handling of FCODE? Thanks, Neil

Bye the way

Any suggestions on SMP bootup would be appreciated; I think I can get it, but.. I believe I just have to setup arch/i386/smp.c correctly to go without a BIOS. - James - To unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo(a)freiburg.linux.de with 'unsubscribe openbios' in the body of the message

Yea, You did a GREAT job, Ronald

Ron, Today we can enter multiuser mode for the first time, thanks to your new kernel patch. The system boots so fast and works as fine as in the traditional BIOS way. One question, how is your current implementation to pass kernel parameter and PCI configuration ?? what are you plan to do to support any kernel without patch ? BTW, I am going to resume doing the devbios driver, hope we can flash the image without the programmer in the near furure. P.S. I will send you the romimage that works on our board.

Current Status in SiS Side
by Ollie Lho 12 Jun '00

Ron, We can use matroxfb to boot linuxbios on SiS 630 to the point of patittion check. For cold boot, the kernel panic about unable to mount root file system. For warm reboot, the kernel Oops. Why ?? Does this exist on you side ?? I also tried to update the kernel, but it seems that the patch in CVS only works on 2.3.99pre5. Even 2.3.99pre6 fail to turn on the monitor, what's wrong ?
