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 CPUs.

Current status: (20090321) Current svn revision (r4080) does NOT support this machine. See the thread on the mailing list with initial support for this mainboard.

(20090422) http://www.coreboot.org/News#2009.2F04.2F22_HP_ProLiant_DL145_G3_now_supported

(20090613) Noticed that the port has a timer problem. (time is moving at double speed)
