But it breaks all SB600 boards with SPI flash. > > Is there no way we can detect what the system booted from? > > Is that what should decide which rom to flash?

It just makes me really sad and annoyed to require manual control like that when the SB600 for all other flash chip purposes is totally excellent - nice and simple! I just don't want to believe that noone thought of mirroring the boot straps in some register. > Or, perhaps make the decision based on which board is detected? Could do - would require every SB600 board to have an explicit board_enable entry.. > That brings us back to the age-old problem of identifying boards > based on PCI ids though. ..and quite likely instead require the use of -m for every SB600 board. //Peter -- coreboot mailing list: [email protected] http://www.coreboot.org/mailman/listinfo/coreboot
