Hi Folks, I have an AMD LX800 custom board running coreboot v2 and linux just fine. We may now want to use coreboot to boot a Windows2000/XP. I have traced through the FAQ/lists and assembled this 1) ALDO embedded with CorebootV3 2) Merged in the LX VGA ROM file (64KB) into the blob/vsa folder My goal right now is to have it recognize a CDROM, install Windows to a 4GB Compact Flash (as an IDE slave), and then boot onto the CompactFlash as IDE-Master. I cannot seem to get the CDROM to boot. Nor can I get the comapct flash, with a known good linux image, to boot. I get all the way into ALDO during boot, ALDO finds the CDrom/CF but then it seems like it has some issue scanning the ATA bus. It says that "in13_hardisk:function 2 unmapped device for ELDL=80"
Debugging into this, it is triggered by this (devices>=BX_MAX_ATA_DEVICES) and it seems like regardless of if I have a CD, CD+CF, or CF, I am always getting devices=BX_MAX_ATA_DEVICES. Also, seems like there is an int13_cdrom as well? Shouldnt that be called in the handler for detecting CD rom? Also - I assume that ADLO can boot a linux image as well. I believe that's what I read? If anyone has a few hints, that would be great.

Something wrong with the timing Which flash part and chipset is this? W39V040PBZ on Via VT8237RP -Corey
