broke and stopped FILO
from being able to boot.
The fix is a simple one line change plus a comment to
src/mainboard/via/epia/auto.c to write to the IDE
configuration register 0x42 . This has always been done here, however
at some point
something broke it.
The same register was also being set correctly in ide_init(), however
for some reason
this does not work. Possibly the register needs to be set before the IDE
peripheral is enabled
or maybe it is a timing issue.
The section of code in ide_init() (
src/southbridge/via/vt8231/vt8231_ide.c ) that does
write to register 0x42 has been commented out as it is superfluous
and I have added a comment to indicate the reason, should someone at a
future date wonder
why.
I have also changed the default COM speed from 19200 to 115200 in
src/mainboard/via/epia/Options.lb
There has been mention before about the EPIA board not being able to use
115200 but I have seen
no such problems with my board.

This patch worked for me and allowed me to boot Debian kernel
2.5.16-4-486 on an epia 800 mhz system. It is able to consistently get
through the initialization and start init now.
However, after that it crashes at various points in the boot process.

Note from comitter: I am commiting this, although:
1. it's not the exact right way to fix it up, the chip.h for the sb
should change
2. Alex reports problems, which are almost certainly memory issues.
But it is as close as we've gotten. I can't test it.

and leaving enough room for a real payload (not /dev/null)
This is a wonderful example why "uses" sucks.
* add Config-abuild.lb for those boards that dont build with
the default settings and a real payload:
arima/hdama, amd/quartet, amd/serengeti_cheetah, ibm/e326
* if lzma is installed and a real payload is used, try compressing
it.
* fix a small bug in "abuild --help"
This patch is acked by me because its due to infrastructural changes only.
Flames welcome.

Default is 255.
This allows mainboard configs for working across various groups
of boards that differ a device that may not loaded.
If you search for a device that is not loaded and max buses is 255
then there can be up to a 8 second delay to search the entire PCI space.
Board configs that know thier max bus can limit this search space.

- Move pci_set_method out of hardwaremain.c
- Re-add debugging name field but only include the CONFIG_CHIP_NAME is
enabled. All instances are now wrapped in CHIP_NAME
- Many minor cleanups so most ports build.

- Rename chip_config chip_operations throughout the tree
- Fix Config.lb on most of the Opteron Ports
- Fix the amd 8000 chipset support for setting the subsystem vendor and device ids
- Add detection of devices that are on the motherboard (i.e. In Config.lb)
- Baby step in getting the resource limit handling correct, Ignore fixed resources
- Only call enable_childrens_resources on devices we know will have children
For some busses like i2c it is non-sense and we don't want it.
- Set the resource limits for pnp devices resources.
- Improve the resource size detection for pnp devices.
- Added a configuration register to amd8111_ide.c so we can enable/disable individual ide channels
- Added a header file to hold the prototype of isa_dma_init
- Fixed most of the superio chips so the should work now, the via superio pci device is the exception.
- The code compiles and runs so it is time for me to go to bed.
