Hi Josiah, Nice to see someone else trying to get the EPIA working again. 1st, what settings do you have in the Config.lb for enabling the IDE controllers - they should be in compatibility mode (I think). 2nd, I'm curious to know how stable your raminit appears to be, I've been having

LinuxBIOS + Etherboot using AMD8111 NIC

Has anyone successfully booted a kernel over the AMD8111 built-in network adapter? I have looked on the Etherboot site and cannot find any information about using an AMD 8111 ethernet adapter. Will the 8111 work with another driver, or will I have to manually patch Etherboot to work? I have

Oooh, looks interesting. I did not actually know what subtractive decoding is. Now I do. After talking to the local PCI guy, it means that the cs5530 will only claim the transaction if it doesn't see anyone else assert devsel# for some number of cycles. I will try this out soon. Thanks very much
