[LinuxBIOS] r2633 build service

[LinuxBIOS information]

Dear LinuxBIOS readers!

This is the automated build check service of LinuxBIOS.

The developer "rminnich" checked in revision 2633 to
the LinuxBIOS source repository and caused the following 
changes:

Change Log:

patch to fix the IDE configuration on EPIA boards. At some point this
broke and stopped FILO
from being able to boot.

The fix is a simple one line change  plus a comment to
src/mainboard/via/epia/auto.c to write to the IDE
configuration register 0x42 .  This has always been done here, however
at some point
something broke it.

The same register was also being set correctly  in ide_init(), however
for some reason
this does not work. Possibly the register needs to be set before the IDE
peripheral is enabled
or maybe it is a timing issue.

The section of code in ide_init() (
src/southbridge/via/vt8231/vt8231_ide.c ) that does
write to register 0x42 has been commented out as it is superfluous
and I have added a comment to indicate the reason, should someone at a
future date wonder
why.

I have also changed the default COM speed from 19200 to 115200 in
src/mainboard/via/epia/Options.lb
There has been mention before about the EPIA board not being able to use
115200 but I have seen
no such problems with my board.

This patch worked for me and allowed me to boot Debian kernel
2.5.16-4-486  on an epia 800 mhz system.  It is able to consistently get
through the initialization and start init now.

However, after that it crashes at various points in the boot process.

Note from comitter: I am commiting this, although:
1. it's not the exact right way to fix it up, the chip.h for the sb
should change
2. Alex reports problems, which are almost certainly memory issues.

But it is as close as we've gotten. I can't test it.
