The miniPCIe to PCIe adapter that I ordered arrived today, and I'm happy to report that I was able to use it in conjunction with my custom EFI option ROM driver loaded onto an Intel 82574 ethernet card to un-brick my ExoPC Slate tablet.
I want to say thanks again for all those who answered my earlier questions on this matter. Now that I have it working again, I can see that it has an AMI BIOS with a build date of November 2010. I was also able to reproduce this phenomenon on an Intel Ivy Bridge reference board ("Sabino Canyon"), with a firmware build date of February 2012. My option ROM hack was effective at un-wedging that one too. -Bill -- ============================================================================= -Bill Paul (510) 749-2329 | Senior Member of Technical Staff, wp...@windriver.com | Master of Unix-Fu - Wind River Systems ============================================================================= "I put a dollar in a change machine.
