It uses an atom -230, which is a singe core CPU but it is hyperthreaded so it appears to -have 2 thread to the OS. The flash chip is very small, 512KiB, so grub2 -does not fit, which is why libreboot has to use seabios on this target. -Full disk encryption like on other supported targets will not be -possible, so plan accordingly. - </p> - <p> - This board has a 945gc chipset which is the desktop equivalent of -945gm which can be found in the Lenovo x60/t60 or macbook2,1. This -chipset features an ICH7 southbridge. It has 1 DIMM slot that can -accommodate up to 2G of DDR2 RAM. - </p> - <p> - Connectivity-wise it has 1 PCI slot, a 10/100 ethernet port, 4 -usb slot and 4 usb ports, with one internal header and 2 SATA ports. - </p> - <p> - The D945GCLF2 is an upgraded version of this board. The -differences are: 1 more USB header, 10/100/1000 ethernet and a dual core - cpu (also hyperthreaded). Since the board is almost identical (and -coreboot code seem to indicate that it works, since MAX_CPU=4 is set), -it is believed that it should also work but this is untested. - </p> - <h2> - Remarks about vendor bios: - </h2> - <ul> - <li>Without coreboot/libreboot this board is utery useless, since the -vendor bios is very bad. It cannot boot from any HDD wether it is -connected to the SATA port or USB. With libreboot it works just fine.</li> - <li>The vendor bios write protects the flash so it requires external -flashing to install libreboot on this device. Once libreboot is flashed -there is no problem to update the firmware internally</li> - </ul> - <p> - Here is an image of the board:<br> - <img alt="" src="../images/d945gclf/d945gclf.jpg"><br/> - Here is an image of the D945GCLF2 board:<br> - <img alt="" src="../images/d945gclf/20160923_141521.jpg" width="80%" height="80%"><br/> - And SPI SOIC8 flash chip<br/> - <img alt="" src="../images/d945gclf/20160923_141550.jpg" width="50%" height="50%"> - </p> - </div> - - <div class="section"> - <h2>How to replace thermal paste and fan</h2> - <p> - This board comes with very crappy disposable loud fan, that one has no bearings, -which can not be repaired or oiled properly, do not waste your time trying to fix it, just buy one chinese same size fan<br/> - <img alt="" src="../images/d945gclf/20160923_141620.jpg" width="50%" height="50%"> - <img alt="" src="../images/d945gclf/20160923_141614.jpg" width="50%" height="50%"> - <br/> - Make sure that new one has same wiring<br/> - <img alt="" src="../images/d945gclf/20160923_142618.jpg" width="50%" height="50%"><br/> - This is a new one, with bearing and maintenable<br/> - <img alt="" src="../images/d945gclf/20160923_141738.jpg" width="50%" height="50%"> - <img alt="" src="../images/d945gclf/20160923_141814.jpg" width="50%" height="50%"><br/> - Now remove the both coolers rotating them a bit, slowly, then clean both silicons -and both coolers (removing cmos battery first is recommended)<br/> - <img alt="" src="../images/d945gclf/20160923_141601.jpg" width="50%" height="50%"><br/> - Put a little bit of non conductive thermal paste on both silicons (only cpu silicon iis shown on that image)<br/> - <img alt="" src="../images/d945gclf/20160923_142031.jpg" width="50%" height="50%"><br/> - <p>Before assembling new fan, some need new longer screws, make sure having these (on the left is original one, too short for new fan)<br/> - <img alt="" src="../images/d945gclf/20160923_141659.jpg" width="50%" height="50%"><br/> - After that, assemble your new fan into CPU cooler<br/> - <img alt="" src="../images/d945gclf/20160923_141635.jpg" width="50%" height="50%"><br/> - Finally assemle both coolers on both chips, do not forget put in the CPU fan connector back, and you are done. - </div> - - <div class="section"> - - <p> - Copyright © 2016 Arthur Heymans <arthur@aheymans.xyz><br> - Copyright © 2016 Vitaly Castaño Solana <vita_cell@hotmail.com><br> - Permission is granted to copy, distribute and/or modify this document - under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 4.0 International license - or any later version published by Creative Commons; - - A copy of the license can be found at <a href="https://libreboot.org/docs/cc-by-sa-4.0.txt">../cc-by-sa-4.0.txt</a> - </p> - - <p> - Updated versions of the license (when available) can be found at - <a href="https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode">https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode</a> - </p> - - <p> - UNLESS OTHERWISE SEPARATELY UNDERTAKEN BY THE LICENSOR, TO THE - EXTENT POSSIBLE, THE LICENSOR OFFERS THE LICENSED MATERIAL AS-IS - AND AS-AVAILABLE, AND MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF - ANY KIND CONCERNING THE LICENSED MATERIAL, WHETHER EXPRESS, - IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHER.
