The wiki is being retired!

Documentation is now handled by the same processes we use for code: Add something to the Documentation/ directory in the coreboot repo, and it will be rendered to https://doc.coreboot.org/. Contributions welcome!

General Information

Certain models and populations of DIMMs do not function under either coreboot or the proprietary BIOS. These failures may also be contingent on the exact PCB revision and / or CPU model installed. A full list of bad configurations encountered thus far is available below:

Known Bad Configurations

Manufacturer Model Size Speed Type ECC CPU Mainboard Mainboard PCB revision Firmware Fails under proprietary BIOS Known requirements to trigger bug Failure Notes
Micron MT36KSF1G72PZ-1G6M1FF 8GB DDR3-1600 Registered Yes Opteron 6262HE ASUS KGPE-D16 1.03G Internal development version of coreboot Yes Two DIMMs on one channel (i.e. a DIMM in at least one black slot) Severe memory corruption; coreboot goes into a reboot loop and the proprietary BIOS hangs on starting its PXE ROM(s). Leaving all black slots empty restores normal operation.
