gigabyte mc12-le0 ast2500 boot messages
# leaving this here to see how many errors are in a 'stable' gigabyte firmware boot process.
# I like the board, but people should be aware how large the gap to Dell etc actually is.
# Was it worth the price I paid? absolutely.
# Was it worth the MSRP? I would say no. There's dozens of man-hours they skipped out on.
# Footnote: Look at the U-Boot prompt. That's still saying EVB, they don't even modified that after
# building the software for the AMI eval board.
# It makes me itch to get an EVB and the sources and fix this. If you wanna send one over... ;-)
