For now this is a plain copy of the ASUS A8V-E SE target, I reported that most of the code also works (sort of) for the ASUS A8V-E Deluxe a long while ago, see http://www.coreboot.org/pipermail/coreboot/2008-March/031866.html http://www.coreboot.org/ASUS_A8V-E_Deluxe There will be a bunch of changes necessary though (devicetree.cb, mptable.c, ACPI, etc) which do not apply to the A8V-E SE, so we need an extra target. Also: Increase ID_SECTION_OFFSET on the VIA K8T890/K8M890 southbridge, as otherwise there will be build errors if the MAINBOARD_PART_NUMBER string gets too long (as is the case for "A8V-E Deluxe"). The error is: ld: section .id loaded at [00000000ffffffd2,00000000ffffffef] overlaps section .romstrap loaded at [00000000ffffff80,00000000ffffffd3] (both with stock Debian gcc and with xgcc) Increase ID_SECTION_OFFSET (default 0x10) to 0x80 as other southbridges do.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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 Optional: * doxygen (for generating/viewing documentation) * iasl (for targets with ACPI support) * gdb (for better debugging facilities on some targets) * ncurses (for 'make menuconfig') * flex and bison (for regenerating parsers) 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: http://www.coreboot.org You can contact us directly on the coreboot mailing list: http://www.coreboot.org/Mailinglist Copyright and License --------------------- The copyright on coreboot is owned by quite a large number of individual developers and companies.
