The wiki is being retired!
Documentation is now handled by the same processes we use for code: Add something to the Documentation/ directory in the coreboot repo, and it will be rendered to https://doc.coreboot.org/. Contributions welcome!
This page describes how to use LinuxBIOS on the MSI MS-7260 (K9N Neo) mainboard.
The mainboard
So far we have verified that revision 1.0 of the mainboard has a socketed PLCC32 ROM chip (512KB).
If you have any other revision of the board, please contact us on the mailing list and let us know if it has a socketed (and PLCC-type) ROM chip.
