IDE_DISK = 1
SERIAL_CONSOLE = 1
SERIAL_IOBASE = 0x3f8
# SERIAL_SPEED = 115200
FSYS_EXT2FS = 1
LINUX_LOADER = 1
# MULTIBOOT_IMAGE = 1

FILO config for IEI LX-800 (boot from memory flash):

AUTOBOOT_FILE = "mem@0xffe00000,0x130000 initrd=mem@0xfff30000,0xac800 clocksource=pit ide-delay=2 console=tty0 quiet"
AUTOBOOT_DELAY = 0
SERIAL_CONSOLE = 1
SERIAL_IOBASE = 0x3f8
# SERIAL_SPEED = 115200
LINUX_LOADER = 1
# MULTIBOOT_IMAGE = 1

Building coreboot

See the Build HOWTO for information on how to build coreboot for this board.

Comparing boot time

BIOS Power UP - OS loader OS loader - Linux Linux - shell Summary
Vendor BIOS (bzImage+initrd on CF) 8 2 2 12
Coreboot (bzImage+initrd on CF) 2 2 2 6
Coreboot (bzImage+initrd on 2MB flash) 2 2 2 6

Required patches

  • This patch is needed to enable the PC speaker.
  • This patch is needed to allow writing and erasing PM49FL004.
