Shanghai CPU support for Tyan S3992 (not S3992-E)

[manisteinn]

I have recently purchased a Tyan S3992 (non-e) and would like to get 6-core support. I'm wondering if anyone has made progress on this? It would be greatly appreciated.

Haven't tried 6-core cpus, but I'm using a couple of 8389s without any problems.

Try this at your own risk , i replaced all the microcode in the S3992 with the microcode from the latest S3992-E BIOS

Patch the Microcode module is not a solution.

i tried it many times on my KFN32-D SLI, but i hang at postcode D0 (with Microcode Updation off) or FF (with Default BIOS Settings).

Now, i tried to change the 1B Module with a similar board: KFSN5-D/IST

(Working CPU: 2358SE Quadcore, Not Working: 2419 Sixcore)

replace the 1B module was a bad idea

with the 2358se i hang at D9 (copy mainbios to shadow ram)

with the 2419 i hang at FF (first D0 than FF)

so forget about the 1B module, this is not the right way.
