I will do it. I built my own seabios as i saw that the prebuilt version has a size of 1MB, and previous revision only around 100KB, that's why.
I will give it a try and let you know.

Good to know.

It would be a good idea, but only if you have time and i have many things still to try to get this board working with coreboot, and i have good hope.
I didn't had time to check system logs for example.
Cheers,
Frédéric

]Now i have a 3 questions for you:
]The build seabios (bios.bin.elf) is about 1MB in size...,
The seabios web page has links to prebuilt binaries. You
could start off using one of these known-good seabios
binaries to eliminate unknowns.
]I didnt put VGA bios so far into the coreboot.rom.
If you see the F12 message on the connected monitor, then
a suitable video bios has been found and used.
By the way, I have this exact board sitting on the shelf.
If I can dig up a suitable power supply, I might give it
a try.
Thanks,
Scott
