Board:hp/dl145 g3

This page describes how to use coreboot on the HP DL145 G3 1U server. It is maintained by ElAngelo.

The manual of the machine is available at hp.com

The main reason for the port is that the bios from HP does not support hardware virtualization on the cpu's.

Following status was achieved with patches. Current svn revision (4080) does NOT support this machine. Mailing list thread with initial support for this mainboard
