I did a 'make menuconfig' but I didn't modify any source, if that's what you mean. > I just built an s2892 rom image with LAB payload (32 bit) > using the latest buildrom revision, without problems.

I do have a Hardy box to build on as well, and I'll try that when I get home. > > > In case this turns out to be a dead end, what does porting > a driver to > > FILO involve? > > LAB shouldn't be a dead end - I've got it in production on > several Tyan systems (s2881, s2882).

I did happen to see the link to the "amideco" utility on the S2881 tutorial, but the S2892 has a Phoenix BIOS. If there is a Phoenix version of that utility, could someone make it available on the coreboot site?
