Hi,

We are doing a university project in our spare time. For this we have
a few desktop machines in which we need support for multiple VGA
cards. The machines we have only support one VGA card at the time. The
BIOS won't assign IRQs for any additional VGA cards, so we would like
to try Coreboot.

Following is our system's information following the FAQ questions
(http://www.coreboot.org/FAQ#Will_coreboot_work_on_my_machine.3F)

Thanks!

  Probing disabled for Winbond W29EE011 because the probing sequence puts the
  AMIC A49LF040A in a funky state.
  Use 'flashrom -c W29EE011' if you have a board with this chip.
