Just to followup and update, I am trying to get SmartFirmware (an implementation of IEEE-1275 Open Firmware) running on x86 with the GX chipset. (Please see www.openfirmware.org for info/links.) I abandoned the Intel L440GX+ motherboard due to similar problems that the LinuxBIOS folks had. Well, OK, that and I toasted the board. Or bent a pin - not sure really. Anyway, I'm now trying to get a Supermicro P6DGE going. It has the same chipsets (GX, PIIX4) and should be similar enough to let me bootstrap SF. I've also got a PromICE (with Trace) hooked in to get some idea of where my code is dying. The only thing I'm short on is alcohol.
