Subject: [PATCH] x86: Workaround low-memory corruption by Phoenix/MSC BIOSes
Date: Fri, 6 Nov 2009 15:44:04 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20091106154404.002648d9@marrow.netinsight.se> (raw)
We have a board with a Phoenix/MSC BIOS which also corrupts the low
64KB of RAM, so add an entry to the table.
