ASUS KFSN4-DRE server/workstation board

+ +

+ This is a server board using AMD hardware (Fam10h). It can also be used + for building a high-powered workstation. Powered by libreboot. +

+ +

+ + NOTE: This board is unsupported in libreboot 20150518. + To use it in libreboot, for now, you must build for it + from source using the libreboot git repository. + +

+ +

+ These boards use LPC flash (not SPI), in a PLCC socket. The default flash size + 1MiB (8Mbits), and can be upgraded to 2MiB (16Mbits). + SST49LF080A is the default that the board uses. + SST49LF016C is an example of a 2MiB (16Mbits) chip, which might work. + It is believed that 2MiB (16Mbits) is the maximum size available for the flash chip. +

+ +

+ Flashing instructions can be found at ../install/index.html#flashrom +

+ +

+ Back to previous index. +

+ +

Current issues

+ There seems to be a 30 second bootblock delay (observed by tpearson); + the system otherwise boots and works as expected. + See text/kfsn4-dre/bootlog.txt + - this uses the 'simple' bootblock, while tpearson uses the 'normal' + bootblock. He says that he will look into this. +
