The point was that it's very strange for nothing to be coming out on the serial port. The only reasons I see for that are a BIOS image that is corrupted (did it verify?) or doesn't match the board, or a serial port misconfiguration. I was trying to help you narrow that down. Unfortunately it can be difficult to debug someone else's BIOS when the only console is email :) Thanks, Myles -- coreboot mailing list: [email protected] http://www.coreboot.org/mailman/listinfo/coreboot
