Hello, Kevin asked to handle this via e-mail, so here we go.
I tried booting with SeaBIOS on DBE63 for some fun and profit, but it unfortunately stalls with some register dumps. I haven't been able to really play with SeaBIOS before, as it can't boot from NAND flash that is on DBE61 and DBE62, but now with the DBE63 prototype on my table I can boot from IDE CompactFlash. On a slightly related note, does SeaBIOS really need to do the bootloader job - could I have it just provide the 16bit services or do we need to implement a geode NAND flash driver in it to have it work for those devces? The log output at default loglevel of 1 is attached. At higher log levels the last dump seems to come from a different place. Should I gather such logs with a larger loglevel or does this say something revealing already? Anything else I can provide here? The device boots the GRUB on that CompactFlash fine with legacy BIOS. SeaBIOS gives a similar output when trying a CF with XPe on it. Regards, Mart Raudsepp
