== Notes ==

This board still needs a binary blob from AMD called VSA.
For coreboot-v2 see [http://www.coreboot.org/AMD_Geode_Porting_Guide the Geode Porting Guide].

For coreboot-v3 build as alix2c.
Than add the VSA. You can download the VSA blob from [http://www.amd.com/files/connectivitysolutions/geode/geode_lx/amd_vsa_lx_1.01.bin.gz here].
You need to uncompress it. It should be 57504 Bytes in Size and MD5 should be 0f4fd87b3eef78bd90b56a39646f5845.

Copy that file into the root of you build system and execute the following command after coreboot is build and before you flash it.
<pre>
build/util/lar/lar -C lzma -a build/bios.bin ./amd_vsa_lx_1.01.bin:blob/vsa
</pre>
