Hi Ron,
I appreciate that this is perhaps not a use you expect Coreboot to be put to, however the following devices all use RDC x86-compatible SoCs and so are theoretically capable of running coreboot + various payloads: Airlink 101 AR525W (router) Edimax BR-6216Mg (router) Gemtek WRTR-137G (router) Longshine LCS-WR-2114M (router) Sitecom WL-153 (router) Sitecom WL-176 (router) Linksys WRT54GR (router) MGB100 (wireless NAS) Bifferboard (NAS) <--- My main interest There are many more. They use either R8610, R3211, or S3282 CPUs and have 486SX instruction set, clocked around 133MHz and generally come with 32MB RAM + 1-4MB flash. The chips have OHCI/EHCI controllers and 10/100 ethernet built-in. I think it makes sense to use the Coreboot payload system (if not Coreboot itself) to extend the bootloaders with extra functionality. One example is USB boot, another is PXE. We might be able to use the payloads as-is for many of these devices. Kind regards, Biff. --- On Sun, 17/5/09, ron minnich <[email protected]> wrote: > From: ron minnich <[email protected]> > Subject: Re: [coreboot] Minimum RAM requirements for coreboot (under Qemu) > To: "bifferos" <[email protected]> > Cc: [email protected] > Date: Sunday, 17 May, 2009, 6:42 PM > On Sun, May 17, 2009 at 8:04 AM, > bifferos <[email protected]> > wrote: > > > So no surprise that it doesn't work, but how/where do > I change > > these values? > > > > It's hard to get a machine with that little memory any > more.
