Hi, I am in the process of porting the Linux BIOS code for my system.
The Specification of my system is as follow: Main board: Intel vc15. SuperIO : SMSC LPC47M192 Northbridge: Intel 845 MCH (DDR support) Southbridge: Intel 82801BA (ICH2) I have added source code to support the above mentioned component as per the specification of corresponding component. I have built the Linux BIOS image also. I need to test the code. Before that I want to know, whether I need to apply any patches to the Linux kernel. I am using 2.4.18 version of Linux kernel. I am planning to boot the kernel from IDE disk. "Please ignore the attachment!!!"

I.e. a very simple control program on the NIC that will give us "serial port" in linuxbios for the very early startup. ron _______________________________________________ Linuxbios mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.clustermatic.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxbios
