RB-C2 probably uses socket type AM3, which is not supported in Coreboot currently. I wonder if your board can go through the whole image.

That would perhaps explain why my box with Quad-Core AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 2372 HE with revision id 0x100f42 really does not like ucode revision 92 (it resets itself constantly). > Issues: > 1.

Well, I have my box booting without any ucode update. It would be nice to have mc_patch_01000086.h public if that's the revision for my cpus. Who do I ask? > 3.
