Hi ron, I use VX800(puls C7), don't know if this chipset has appear on market:).
I had used coreboot+filo to boot ubuntu8.04 three day before, and everything are perfect, ide,network,audio,sata,usb,s3(kb+mouse+powerbutton can wake),s4,powerdown,reboot. I began to try seabios from yesterday. I applied the patch in this link http://www.coreboot.org/pipermail/coreboot/2008-September/038551.html, And use seabios as payload. Now I just download the file bios.bin.elf-20081027 from seabios's site, and didn't run "make" myself, and seabios stop at somewhere. But this is just a beginning:) Jason zhao -----Original Message----- From: ron minnich [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, November 04, 2008 11:46 AM To: Myles Watson Cc: Jason Zhao; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [email protected] Subject: Re: [coreboot] coreboot.v2+seabios on 440bx: option roms not On Mon, Nov 3, 2008 at 7:40 PM, Myles Watson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > >> -----Original Message----- >> From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] >> On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] >> Sent: Monday, November 03, 2008 7:43 PM >> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >> Cc: [email protected] >> Subject: Re: [coreboot] coreboot.v2+seabios on 440bx: option roms not >> >> I think the patch is in this link. >> http://www.coreboot.org/pipermail/coreboot/2008-September/038551.html >> Is this one, Myles? > > That looks more complex than what I was thinking of.

I think we need some fixes for ACPI. jason, which board are you using, I should try to get one. But seabios works wonderfully well, I am really impressed! ron -- coreboot mailing list: [email protected] http://www.coreboot.org/mailman/listinfo/coreboot
