  • ALC203 AC'97 AD/DA

Building FILO

FILO config for IEI LX-800 (boot from CF): 

USE_GRUB = 0
AUTOBOOT_FILE = "hdb1:/boot/bzImage syscrtc=/dev/hdb1 initrd=hdb1:/boot/initrd.gz clocksource=pit ide-delay=2 hda=none ide1=noprobe console=tty0 quiet"
AUTOBOOT_DELAY = 1
IDE_DISK = 1
SERIAL_CONSOLE = 1
SERIAL_IOBASE = 0x3f8
# SERIAL_SPEED = 115200
FSYS_EXT2FS = 1
LINUX_LOADER = 1
# MULTIBOOT_IMAGE = 1

Building coreboot 

$ cd targets
$ ./buildtarget iei/lx-800-r10
$ cd iei/lx-800-r10/lx-800-r10
$ LANG=C make

The LANG=C is only for those users that uses a localised system.
