Sounds reasonable. It is a PCI port 80 card. I'll try that when I find time. 
BTW, could you explain what happens after soft_reset? Will coreboot run again 
from start? At least the following "die(...)" statement (romstage.c 
cache_as_ram_main) suggests that program flow should NOT get there. So, if 
coreboots runs again from start, why doesn't it enable port 80 again like it 
did initially?


Thanks,
