hi all,
I am working with a mainboard similar to PCCHIPS m758lmr+.
I want to enable VGA support. but I get some error message.

I saw a discussion in the list on the same problem with epia800. Since one
week we are working on a solution for having text console and framebuffer
for national's SC1200. We came to the same result that the problem must be
the vga registers which were normally set by the vgabios. So if we startup
Hello again,
does anyone know if/how the linux /dev/nvram device is working with
linuxbios and my Epia5000?
I would love to store some status information of my car mp3 player in
the nvram, since power supply can be cut any time and I want my harddisk
to be mounted readonly.

I think you should get memtest86, set it up to run on serial console, and
see if it works or not.

not yet. If you have a copy of the vgabios binary for that hardware you
could try seeing if it would work.
The vga register problem is a mess, as the vendors rarely want to help.

hmmm -- you mean with lilo?
i've never used memtest86.
will give it a try.

no, no, that does not work.
the payload is never loaded/reached.
the trouble is caused earier!
right after crt0.s a jmp to the copied mem
is done. the copied mem is c_start.s at the beginning.

The only thing I can think of is to try a different/ smaller SDRAM; 64M
or 128M. The RAM setup code is not always that smart about
configuration. But has anyone else got the epia-m working? I have only
used EPIA-800.

thanks, Andrew
I used 57600 instead so I solved the problem of original and linux bios.
Now I can boot linux by serial but I need to support VGA
Iread past mailing lists but I couldn't get a certain answer

Hello,
So I've got the epia800 working with the original BIOS that was
extracted from the original BIOS. I've been looking over the code that
was submitted, and as well as the difference between register settings
on boot with regular BIOS settings and LinuxBIOS settings. I have been
trying

Unfortunately I tried again and again today and I can't properly flash my winbond chip.
I even tried to nice -19 flash_rom, remove the print's but it doesn't help.
I dumped several time the content burned, and there are each time several errors, not

You don't think so ?
I don't think that 39F and 49F are compatible.

Hello,
I'm still not sure what is causing it yet. I know it happens when I
seem to turn on my epia board after it being off for awhile, while
looking only at the screen and not the serial console.
I get these message

What I think I have found on the ide is that some older drives report
they are LBA but sector reads fail. Maybe that they are CHS, or, it may
be the status bits are different and it is a timing thing. But a simple
read of linear sector 0 got
fixes welcome. This is CF that is failing. Actually it reads the data and

Hi Ron,

the data is fine, but when it jumps to the payload nothing happens.
Have you tried different CF? Different CF behave differently. Some CF
card need more delay/timeout in the IDE driver.

Hi Ron,
actually, as near as we could tell the data was getting in to memory. But
once it jumped to the payload it never came back.
Interesting. What payload are u using? I have been using etherboot which
is pretty stable. However, Filo will be my next target.

Hi Ron,
etherboot we built here. We have not had much luck building etherboot,
however.
I have been using 5.0.6 with Adam's patch. Have you tried earlier version?
