Hi!
I'm trying to get a working linuxbios on my Via epia m2 12000,
with 1200mhz processor and 512mb ram.
The goal is to boot linux from a usbstick (guess i will be using filo
and boot the device a uda1)
I've managed to extract my videobios image with awardeco and that gave
me a videobios file which was exactly 57344byte, how can i apply this
to my linuxbios.rom file?
The issue is the linuxbios.rom file is allready 256kb, Where would i
change the size of this built "rom file" and what should i set it to:
I tried setting this:
option ROM_SIZE=256*1024
to:
option ROM_SIZE=200*1024
Then doing:
buildtarget via/epia-m
cd via/epia-m/via_epia-m
make
This gives me this:
...
./buildrom linuxbios.strip linuxbios.rom payload 0x10000 0x12000
payload (41187) + linuxbios (65536) size larger than ROM (73728) size!
make[1]: *** [linuxbios.rom] Error 1
...
Any suggestions would be welcome.
