Holy crap awesome you are the best dude! I asked about this awhile ago and I wish you had replied :D I have boards without it so I would love to buy some if they are priced lower than the official one - Do you have an estimate? Might be a way for you to make a bit of extra cash as you could peddle them to the various core/libreboot D8/D16 sellers plus leah/minifree, the fsf, raptor (for integricloud x86) etc. It is still quite important to have these boards as propriatary-equivilant-functional for applications that don't yet run on POWER (talos 2/blackbird) and this is a great step considering the D8 and many D16's even new don't come with that chip and they sell for IMO too much on ebay. (my linky is $30 plus a silly $30 shipping for tiny chip - so $60) -- coreboot mailing list: [email protected] https://mail.coreboot.org/mailman/listinfo/coreboot
