Oooh, I guess it's a chance for me to contribute in
some way. :-)
I'm not familiar with DIMM autosizing. But I believe
the problem is coming from the following block of code
that does the module bank detection. At least that's
the first sign of trouble since module bank detection
is done and then
Does any one have a EPIA-MII 1.2GHz &, or the 1.0GHz?? If you would be so
kind as to give me a copy of the output from "cat /proc/cpuinfo"? Just
would like to no what CPU is on the board. More info then what I can get off
via's web site.
Thank you
