Got this I-Bus SBC today:

Intel 82430HX
MR BIOS V3.57
Build: V098I5MC
Date: 05/27/98

This is very interesting. Not only is this a new Soc7 image, but it's also the first I see a MR BIOS firmware newer than 3.46.

The question is, what new features are there? And whether it's possible to somehow transplant them to the 3.46 BIOSes.

Here's one to add to the list. I recently dumped Mr BIOS v3.43 for SiS 85C461V (SIS_40G) chipsets.

Wow, great! So unusual to see such a recent BIOS for a 486 board.

Which revision is your Asus board, btw?

Is there an MR BIOS in our repo vor either ALi M1429G/1431 or 85C407/471?

I can confirm this BIOS also works with the slightly earlier SiS 85C460 chipset (tested on PAT48SA 1.30 motherboard) and is also detected with that name in the BIOS overview.

Reality continues to ruin my life.
