[coreboot] status of coreboot on Asus A8N-E

[Andy Jakobs]

Hello Pierre,

I also have this board and a NVIDIA 7600GT PCI-E card.

I tested the latest revision a few days ago. Unfortunately there was 
still no output on the screen after a power-off. So it is no real 
alternative/replacement for the legacy bios of the board yet.

But console output works.

Best regards,
Andy
