Hi there Nekoboy (sorry if I'm repeating my older questions, I
forgot). Please tell:

1) IOMMU - did it ever work on F2A85M board? If you're unsure, could
you try building the older coreboot just to check it?
2) Have you installed the unofficial microcode patches? If not, please
run this ./ucode.sh script at your coreboot directory:
http://dangerousprototypes.com/docs/Lenovo_G505S_hacking#AMD_microcode_updates
to conveniently and securely patch your cloned coreboot with these
updated microcodes, then try running Linux and tell what microcode
version do you see (confirmation of successful microcode install) and
check if IOMMU got fixed by it.

Step "2)" should be tried both for the latest coreboot and some older
version. Yes, a bit time consuming, but hopefully you could test it
well. By the way, I got A88XM-E which is not merged to coreboot yet
but is based on F2A85M port, however I have a lot of parallel projects
and didn't have time to even test if my new (actually used) board is
working, so you'll have to rely on your own for a while.

Best regards,
Mike Banon
