On my search for a LinuxBIOS compatible AMD mainboard, I tripped over
the ECS 760GX-M.
It's socket 754 and uses the SiS chips 760GX and 964. As far as I know
SiS is supporting LinuxBIOS actively, so
in terms of the chipset the board should run LinuxBIOS. Plus, it has a
4Mb (=500 KiB) Flash ROM with the following
description from the manufactorer's website:
SYSTEM BIOS
Award BIOS with 4Mb Flash ROM
Supports Plug and Play 1.0A, APM 1.2, Multi Boot, DMI
Supports ACPI revision 1.0 specification
Because I want to be shure that this mainboard supports LinuxBIOS
before I will buy it, I thought I'd better
ask here if anyone has it in use and can say something about it.
The chipset and the plug and play BIOS at least sound promisingly to
me. Oh, and a previous ECS mainboard,
the K7SEM, is proven to be compatible.
