I got looking at some other drivers and reading some other mails on the
list, and changing pci_ops to use cf0/cf8 fixed it, and also fixed my
problems with the ide and sata drivers hanging (so all those phase3
functions are back in phase6 where they belong). The system now boots to
memtest and actually sees the memory to test now, but I'm still having a
problem building the cpu driver, which means booting is EXTREMEMLY slow. The
stage2 driver is in via/c7.c, but no matter where I try to include it in the
make files, arch/x86/Makefile or mainboard/jetway/j7f2/Makefile, I get this
error:

make: *** No rule to make target
`/home/corey/coreboot/coreboot-v3/build/mainboard/jetway/j7f2//home/corey/coreboot/coreboot-v3/arch/x86/via/c7.o',
needed by `/home/corey/coreboot/coreboot-v3/build/coreboot.stage2'.  Stop.

I'm no expert on makefiles, so I could use a hand. I've tried to locate
where/how geodelx/cpu.c is built, but it doesn't seem that it ever is,
adding a #error to the file still lets alix1c and other geodelx boards build
without error.

Other then that, things are looking VERY promising, I'm finishing up a few
things I put off before, and once the CPU driver is running I'd like to try
booting a kernel :)

Thanks,
Corey
