I have been struggling to find a suitable board here in the uk, with a
disastrous attempt using an asus board I have now found a sis 630 based
board made my a company called Jetway ( i suspect this to be PCCHIPS board)
which worked straght out of the box with the matsonic etherboot rom. After
carefully examining the board it became apparent that a small mod would be
required to use a 512kb rom.
This was quite an easy task of moving one surface mount link, boy are these
small.

Any way I now seam to have a working system, I just have 3 questions.

1. The board uses a Winbond W83697HF superio chip and not the SIS 950.
     Should I change anything, The meaning of register 24 is different
beetween the two (It deals with the flash chip
     the CLKSEL frequency), if so how to i go about the code and the source
tree.

2. I am unable to program the flash chip on board using Ollies flash_rom
even after i make the above mods to the
    program. Could some one please explain ( or point me at the data sheet )
for the sis 630 register settings in
    flash_rom.

3. I havn't done anything with regard to irq routing the board appears to be
fully functional ( well the lan works as
    does the audio, the serial and the parallel ports), is there any tests
to conferm this.

Thanks

Russell ( a happy linuxbioser :-)
