[LinuxBIOS] flash issue with AMD Ref board<BR></FONT><BR></DIV>
<DIV></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I'm playing with the AMD seranede
board. The flash_and_burn utility can not program linuxBIOS to
the flash. but I can read the linuxbios and save to a file
correctly.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>If I boot from AMI BIOS, using same
utility, I can program a linuxBIOS into the
flash. That made me believe some setting by linuxBIOS on
the AMD Ref board is not right. I just don't know what.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I used gdb to trace the code,
Flash_and_burn utility enables flash by program two AMD Southbridge
8111 registers, One for enable 4MB window to flash (DevB, 0x43), one
for enable write to the flash (DevB, 0x40). I checked the AMD
datasheet, it seems all it need. But if I boot with LinuxBIOS, the
flash erase command has no effect. with AMI BIOS, I can sucessfully
erase a sector. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>could anybody give me some pointer
on what to check? </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I should add, the linuxBIOS only
reports 2GB memory when I really have 4GB in the system. I don't
know if this have something to do with my issue.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks </FONT></DIV>
