happened when I was debugging the onboard VGA support.<br>
So i move the CPU init before other pci device init call. That is <br>
something related to mtrr setting around [0xa0000-0xb0000) the font<br>
buffer.<br>
the halt_sys display is normal...it means the vga option rom is<br>
executed successfully.<br>
you can use filo in etherboot to boot from usb stick. <br>
