Building coreboot
Note: you can use the same target as for the ASUS A8N-E board. At the time of writing there's no specific target for the ASUS A8N-SLI.
See the Build HOWTO for information on how to build coreboot for this board.
Known issues
- The MAC address is stored in flash for almost all CK804/MCP55 boards. All of these boards flashed with coreboot probably have the same MAC address. See src/southbridge/nvidia/ck804/romstrap.inc and src/southbridge/nvidia/mcp55/romstrap.inc for details. On some of these boards, the MAC address is stored in a separate EEPROM, but you can't count on that.
- halt -p / shutdown -P fails due to no acpi
- possible issue if PCI card in PCI_1 causing hang
- SATA ports 1 and 2 will not allow disk to be found SATA port 3 works and 4 is untested.
RAM
- 512mb ram, DIMM A1 ( 1x512mb ) - Boots
- 512mb ram, DIMM A2 ( 1x512mb ) - Hangs
- 512mb ram, DIMM B1 ( 1x512mb ) - Hangs
- 512mb ram, DIMM B2 ( 1x512mb ) - Hangs
- 1gb ram, DIMMs A2_B2 ( 2x512mb ) - Boots
- 1.5Gb Ram, DIMMS A2_B2_B1 (3x512Mb) - Hangs on Ram2.00
- 1.5Gb Ram, DIMMS A2_B2_A1 (3x512Mb) - Hangs on Ram2.00
- 1.5Gb Ram, DIMMS A2_B2_B1_A1 (4x512Mb) - Hangs on Ram2.00
