Humm, so I am working on the EPIA-MII. Jonathan was kind enough to provide me with a compiling version of the source code. OK, I am stuck at this point. The code is compiled and flashed. Here is my console output. On the first reboot.

   vt8623 init starting
   vt8623 done

After the first reboot I have to set my connection speed to 57600 instead of 115200, and I get.

   ...`(...H....`(...H.

   LinuxBIOS-1.1.8.0Normal Sun Jun  5 22:31:09 PDT 2005 starting...

Where do I turn up the debug so I can get a bit more info and perhaps track the problem??

Heh. Well, I make absolutely no guarantees about this code other than
"it compiles for me". It won't do VGA stuff and having had a further
prod around there's a lot of cleanup that needs done around the vt1211
code. I've no way of running it or testing it until my kit arrives and
I'm loathe to start making more changes until I've tested at least this
lot to see if anything happens. :)

However, I've put what I've got up in an Arch repository.

tla register-archive [EMAIL PROTECTED] \
http://www.earth.li/~noodles/arch/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
tla get [EMAIL PROTECTED]/freebios--epia-m--2.0 freebios2-epiam
cd freebios2-epiam/targets
./buildtarget via/epia-m/Config.filo.lb
cd via/epia-m/epia-m/
make

(You'll need a copy of filo.elf in the same directory as the
freebios2-epiam subdirectory for the make to complete)
