Original BIOS information gathering

Dumps of information gathered by various commands while running the proprietary BIOS are available here: File:ASRock E350M1 info dump.tar.bz2

Hardware

The ROM chip is not soldered to the board but socketed. You can buy replacement (exact ROM chip for E350M1 or empty ones). See http://flashrom.org/Technology#DIP8:_Dual_In-line_Package.2C_8_pins and http://www.bios-chip24.com/Asrock-E350M1/en.

GPP PCIe ports on the FCH:

port 0: mini PCIe slot

port 1: ethernet chip

port 2: UBS3 chip

port 3: unconnected

GPP CLK ports on the FCH:

port 0: mini PCIe slot

port 1: ethernet chip

port 2: UBS3 chip

port 3: unconnected

port 4: unconnected

port 5: unconnected

port 6: unconnected

port 7: unconnected

port 8: unconnected

GPP GFX SLT clock:

PCIe card

PERST# for ethernet chip and mini PCIe card are connected to RSTOUT1# pin of the NCT5572D.

The SLP_S3# and SLP_S5# outputs of the FCH are connected to the corresponding inputs of the SIO.

Temperature and fan control

Fan control is currently unimplemented in coreboot. Still it can be done in GNU/Linux.

Note that the mainboard manual states that only the CPU_FAN1 connector supports fan control.

Fancontrol configuration file for adjusting the CPU fan speed dynamically: File:Fancontrol.gz
