in line with the K10 code. I was trying to use DDR2 800 (CL6) memory on an m57sli, but booting failed. Marc Jones found this bug (thanks!), which fixes booting with this specific memory. For the record, it was Crucial CT2KIT25664AA800. I put the machine through a few days of use. It also succesfully passed a run of http://people.redhat.com/dledford/memtest.shtml: $ ./memtest TEST_DIR: /tmp SOURCE_FILE: linux-2.6.29.1.tar.bz2 NR_PASSES: 20 MEGS_PER_COPY: 270 NR_COPIES: 45 PARALLEL: no COMPRESS_RATIO: 5 COMPRESS_FLAG: j COMPRESS_PROG: /bin/bzip2 EXTRACT: yes Creating comparison source...done.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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. Payloads -------- After the basic initialization of the hardware has been performed, any desired "payload" can be started by coreboot. Examples include: * A Linux kernel * FILO (a simple bootloader with filesystem support) * GRUB2 (a free bootloader; support is in development) * OpenBIOS (a free IEEE1275-1994 Open Firmware implementation) * Open Firmware (a free IEEE1275-1994 Open Firmware implementation) * SmartFirmware (a free IEEE1275-1994 Open Firmware implementation) * GNUFI (a free, UEFI-compatible firmware) * Etherboot (for network booting and booting from raw IDE or FILO) * ADLO (for booting Windows 2000 or OpenBSD) * Plan 9 (a distributed operating system) * memtest86 (for testing your RAM) 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 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.
