Hello Guys,
After some clean up on K.M. Liu's effort, LinuxBIOS works in
a K7+SiS730S enviroment !!! The code has been committed in the CVS.
This should be a great news for cluster guys like Ron.
We are using PCCHIPS M810LMR mainboard as development platform. The
LinuxBIOS enviroment can boot to (work in) mulituser mode without
any trouble. Due to NDA with AMD, we (SiS) are not allowed to release
information on the L2 cache init, so L2 is not enabled. Probably Ron
has a solution on this. I will test other stuff this week.
The information on PCCHIPS M810LMR can be obtained from
http://www.pcchips.com.tw/M810LMR.html
Distirubtors of PCCHIPS world-wide:

The mainboard costs U.S.$ 62 if ordered from Hong Kong, $64 form
Taiwan. I am asking Taiwan distributor if they accept credit card.
But you U.S. guys can contact the U.S. distribuors too.
There seems to be a new model M812LMR to be avaliable soon. I will
keep an eye on it.
If you are interested in getting Specs on SiS 730 please send a mail,
it is NOT avaliable on the web page.
Ollie
