Original BIOS information gathering

Dumps of information gathered by various commands while running the proprietary BIOS are available here: File:ASRock E350M1 info dump.tar.bz2

Hardware

The ROM chip is not soldered to the board but socketed. You can buy replacement (exact ROM chip for E350M1 or empty ones). See http://flashrom.org/Technology#DIP8:_Dual_In-line_Package.2C_8_pins and http://www.bios-chip24.com/Asrock-E350M1/en.

GPP PCIe ports on the FCH:

port 0: mini PCIe slot
port 1: ethernet chip
port 2: UBS3 chip
port 3: unconnected

GPP CLK ports on the FCH:

port 0: mini PCIe slot
port 1: ethernet chip
port 2: UBS3 chip
port 3: unconnected
port 4: unconnected
port 5: unconnected

port 7: unconnected
port 8: unconnected

GPP GFX SLT clock:

PCIe card

PERST# for ethernet chip and mini PCIe card are connected to RSTOUT1# pin of the NCT5572D.

The SLP_S3# and SLP_S5# outputs of the FCH are connected to the corresponding inputs of the SIO.

Incomplete list of the connections to the SuperIO-chip

Temperature and fan control

Fan control is currently unimplemented in coreboot. Still it can be done in GNU/Linux.

Note that the mainboard manual states that only the CPU_FAN1 connector supports fan control.

Fancontrol configuration file for adjusting the CPU fan speed dynamically: File:Fancontrol.gz
