{{Status|

|CPU_status = OK
|CPU_L1_status = OK
|CPU_L1_comments = CPU: L1 I cache: 16K, L1 D cache: 16K
|CPU_L2_status = WIP
|CPU_L2_comments = L2 cache is not being enabled at the moment. We're working on fixing it.
|CPU_L3_status = N/A
|CPU_multiple_status = WIP
|CPU_multiple_comments = Initializing both CPUs ''seems'' to work fine, but Linux has some problems, thus we currently need to use '''maxcpus=0'''.
|CPU_multicore_status = N/A
|CPU_virt_status = N/A

|RAM_EDO_status = N/A
|RAM_SDRAM_status = WIP
|RAM_SDRAM_comments = Works, but currently the RAM settings are hardcoded to one 64MB DIMM and certain speed settings. This will be fixed soon.

|RAM_DDR2_status = N/A
|RAM_DDR3_status = N/A
|RAM_dualchannel_status = N/A
|RAM_ecc_status = WIP
|RAM_ecc_comments = Not yet supported by the coreboot 440BX code, but it's on out TODO list.
