The Linuxbios.rom is 64 kB, the Bioschip is 256 kB and the flashutility says: "File and ROM size mismatch" -> Do I need a new smaller Bios-ROM?
Or is there another way making it work?



well you could

dd if=/dev/zero of=outimage.rom bs=1k count=256
dd if=Linuxbios.rom of=outimage.rom bs=1k seek=192

This will give you a 256kb Image with LB located in the last 64k.

Also you can mess with option ROM_IMAGE_SIZE and option PAYLOAD_SIZE

I set ROM_IMAGE_SIZE to Chip size - payload size.

These control various parameters that are given to dd when it builds the imagefile.

And when using the payloader, which file is the right one?

1. romimage         (1.4 MB)
2. payload.block     (1.3 MB)
3. linux.bin.gz        (1.2 MB)

the 'payload' statement in the config file determines what payload file is used.
