Please apply the patch below to coreboot (after adjusting the > memory size for your machine). The patch you sent assumed one GB of ram, right? I reduced the amount of ram in the system to 1GB. The patch does not appear to help. Logs here: Boot menu enabled (keeps printing the debug output indefinitely): http://ward.vandewege.net/coreboot/m2a-vm/m2a-vm-seabios-menu-extra-kbd-logging-tables-patch.cap Boot menu disabled (boots somewhat, like before): http://ward.vandewege.net/coreboot/m2a-vm/m2a-vm-seabios-no-menu-extra-kbd-debugging-tables-patch.cap Any further thoughts?
