Hi everybody,
Too bad, first test boot didn't work... at all... I expected the early
serial stuff to work at least (as this was already in svn, but...)
I'm using a very simple null-modem cable with only rx,tx and ground
wired. Is this enough or does coreboot require a more complete cable?
Also, do I need some special settings to enable the debugging output?
I really feel like the newbie now, asking these basic questions :),
but I also would really like to get this thing working on this
motherboard...
regards Daniel

Hi everybody,
I'm working on getting coreboot going on my 'thintune'. It's a thin
client PC with a custom motherboard based on the via vt8601 North
and vt82c686b south. I'm using coreboot v2 since v3 was stated to be
unstable (Is this the best choice?).
I started out by porting some of the code for the 82c686 from the v1
project and using the code for the vt8235 to structure it in the v2
way. I've no clue if I've done it right or not, but there doesn't
seem to be very much documentation on that (feel free to point out
if there is...).
I'm currently trying to get it built, but just found out that SMBus
seems to be needed for the RAM stuff, so I'm porting it over from
the 8235.
Any tips, tricks and remarks are welcome. I'll give word when it
compiles and I've done a test boot.
regards,
Daniel Lindenaar
