Hi,

I have a laptop with the ICH8M chipset for intel core 2 duo
microprocessors. It seems like it is not yet supported by coreboot: is
there anything I can do to speed the support process? Here are some
info about my system:

Motherboard: Manufacturer: Intel Corporation
                   Product Name: SANTA ROSA CRB
chipsets: Manufacturer: Intel Corporation
             Product Name: Crestline & ICH8M Chipset
processor: Intel Core 2 Duo

The lspci -tvnn command gives me the following:

IDE Controller [8086:2828]
          \-1f.3  Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) SMBus
Controller [8086:283e]

I don't know what I/O chip is on the mainboard, and superiotool -dV
fails to find anything, and the result of flashrom -V is attached in a
file.

And thanks for your hard work!

Lionel
