Free text-only (AST2050 native)
Free native text-mode-only initialization (without an Option ROM) is available for the ASpeed AST2050 BMC used for the onboard VGA on this board. Linux can then initialize the BMC's graphics (framebuffer) modes for non-text output. If graphics are required earlier (e.g. for a bootsplash or GRUB framebuffer), the proprietary AST2050 Option ROM can be used instead.
