Hi, all,
 
I am new in coreboot. Now for fasting boot, I want to install coreboot to a PC104 computer. I wonder whether it is supported by the coreboot. The following is some information of the martherboard,
1.       Vendor: NORCO
2.       Mainboard:EMB-3680
3.       Northbridge: AMD Geode™ LX 800
4.       Southbridge: AMD Geode™ CS5536
5.       Super I/O: Winbond™ W83627HG
6.       CPU: AMD Geode LX-800-500MHz
7.       Home page: http://www.norco.cn/ArticleShow.asp?ArticleID=31&BigClassName=Embedded%20Industrial%20Motherboard&SmallClassName=3.5%20Inch%20Motherboard
 
And run ‘lspci’, it displays,
00:01.0 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] CS5536 [Geode companion] Host Bridge (rev 33)
00:01.1 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] Geode LX Video
00:0c.0 Bridge: Integrated Technology Express, Inc. IT8888F/G PCI to ISA Bridge with SMB [Golden Gate] (rev 03)
00:0e.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+ (rev 10)
00:0f.0 ISA bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] CS5536 [Geode companion] ISA (rev 03)
00:0f.2 IDE interface: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] CS5536 [Geode companion] IDE (rev 01)
00:0f.3 Multimedia audio controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] CS5536 [Geode companion] Audio (rev 01)
00:0f.4 USB Controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] CS5536 [Geode companion] OHC (rev 02)
00:0f.5 USB Controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] CS5536 [Geode companion] EHC (rev 02)
00:11.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL-8139/8139C/8139C+ (rev 10)
 
From the supported boards list of coreboot website, this PC104 computer is the most similar to “IEI IEI PCISA-LX-800-R10” in coreboot v2, except the supper I/O is W83627EHG. 
 
Based on the above mentioned points, can I follow the tutorial of “IEI IEI PCISA-LX-800-R10” to install the coreboot v2 to PC104 computer? And any hint?
 
Thank you for any input?
