Stefan Reinauer 138be8315b This does the following: cd coreboot/src/southbridge svn mv i82801ca i82801cx svn mv i82801dbm i82801dx svn mv i82801er i82801ex svn copy i82801xx i82801bx svn mv i82801xx i82801ax Plus, fixing up the filenames in these directories and the romstage.c and Kconfig files of the mainboards using those drivers. Plus, switching the thomson ip1000 and rca rm4100 to the i82801dx driver. There's a lot more to be done, like - adding device IDs for the ICH3 and newer drivers that have been kept in i82801xx so far - drop the additional parts support from the ax and bx drivers.

README

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
coreboot README
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

coreboot is a Free Software project aimed at replacing the proprietary
BIOS you can find in most of today's computers.

It performs just a little bit of hardware initialization and then executes
one of many possible payloads, e.g. a Linux kernel or a bootloader.


Payloads
--------

After the basic initialization of the hardware has been performed, any
desired "payload" can be started by coreboot.

See http://www.coreboot.org/Payloads for a list of supported payloads.


Supported Hardware
------------------

coreboot supports a wide range of chipsets, devices, and mainboards.

For details please consult:

 * http://www.coreboot.org/Supported_Motherboards
 * http://www.coreboot.org/Supported_Chipsets_and_Devices


Build Requirements
------------------

 * gcc / g++
 * make
 * python

Optional:

 * doxygen (for generating/viewing documentation)
 * iasl (for targets with ACPI support)
 * gdb (for better debugging facilities on some targets)
 * ncurses (for 'make menuconfig')


Building coreboot
-----------------

Please consult http://www.coreboot.org/Build_HOWTO for details.


Testing coreboot Without Modifying Your Hardware
-------------------------------------------------

If you want to test coreboot without any risks before you really decide
to use it on your hardware, you can use the QEMU system emulator to run
coreboot virtually in QEMU.

Please see http://www.coreboot.org/QEMU for details.


Website and Mailing List
------------------------

Further details on the project, a FAQ, many HOWTOs, news, development
guidelines and more can be found on the coreboot website:
