I ran the steps, with a minor tuning, that you mentioned: $ make -j4 crossgcc $ make menuconfig $ make That didn't error out, on a 64-bit debian testing machine. Can you show the content of .xcompile, found in the top directory where you cloned coreboot into? > > Thanks in advance, > > Andy. HTH, Idwer

Hi Ron, Thanks for your reply. Seems a nice starting point, just in case its of interest to anyone else, his website: http://johnlewis.ie/coreboot-on-chromebooks/pre-built-firmware/ There is also a google community: https://plus.google.com/communities/112479827373921524726 I'll also take a look at the Chromium OS dev guide, maybe the hack to boot seabios directly is not so hard. I'll report soon! > Your first step is to talk to John Lewis so he can give you some > pointers on how to go at it. > > There's lots of fun chances for missteps. > > Your BEST bet to start is to use the chromium development environment, > and the sources we use, rather than upstream, just to make sure you > can do it at all. > > I have set up a peppy to only ever load seabios, which was not hard. > But I did not start from the code at coreboot.org. > > Sorry you had that problem. > > ron

Your first step is to talk to John Lewis so he can give you some pointers on how to go at it. There's lots of fun chances for missteps. Your BEST bet to start is to use the chromium development environment, and the sources we use, rather than upstream, just to make sure you can do it at all. I have set up a peppy to only ever load seabios, which was not hard. But I did not start from the code at coreboot.org. Sorry you had that problem. ron

HP Chromebook 14 (Falco)
by Rubén Torrero Marijnissen 07 Feb '14

07 Feb '14

Hi, I grew tired today of the default firmware that comes with my Google Chromebook 14; just when I had my Arch Linux install perfectly working somehow, by letting it attempt to boot Chrome OS, it messed up my partitions. If I have understood correctly (please, correct me if i'm wrong), the code for this model is alredy in place in the Git repository but no one has really tested it (or has reported anything on the wiki). Does anyone have more info? should I be able to flash it with flashrom after I build it? Any help is appreciated, I will update the wiki will all the info once i'm done. Thanks!

Setting up build environment
by Andy Pont 07 Feb '14

07 Feb '14

Hello! I am trying to setup a build environment on 64bit CentOS 6.5 platform to be able to build coreboot. I have cloned the coreboot sources from git and have run the following commands: make crossgcc <-- to build the cross compilers make menuconfig <-- to create the default .config file make <-- to build the default configuration It runs for a while then when it tries to build the default seabios payload I get the following (from make V=1): Compiling IASL /home/andy.pont/Software/coreboot/build/seabios/out/acpi-dsdt.hex cpp -P src/acpi-dsdt.dsl > /home/andy.pont/Software/coreboot/build/seabios/out/acpi-dsdt.dsl.i.orig python ./tools/acpi_extract_preprocess.py /home/andy.pont/Software/coreboot/build/seabios/out/acpi-dsdt.dsl.i.orig > /home/andy.pont/Software/coreboot/build/seabios/out/acpi-dsdt.dsl.i /home/andy.pont/Software/coreboot/util/crossgcc/xgcc/bin/iasl -Pn -vs -l -tc -p /home/andy.pont/Software/coreboot/build/seabios/out/acpi-dsdt /home/andy.pont/Software/coreboot/build/seabios/out/acpi-dsdt.dsl.i Error 6092 - Could not open file "(null)" (Permission denied) Have I missed something obvious or can someone guide me in the right direction to get the default environment working before I start modifying things? Thanks in advance, Andy.

Trouble with coreboot for Roda RK9 15" and 17"
by Дмитрий Багрянский 07 Feb '14

07 Feb '14

Hello Nico, Could you please help me to solve some problems? Laptop: Roda RK9 15" and 17" With model 13" the coreboot works well, but as for 15" and 17" models we faced with the following problems: 15" - I add vga bios from native BIOS Phoenix and when it is loading the screen is brightened but the text may be distinguised. 17" - I do the same actions, but when it is loading the screen is white and then fades. As for the 13" model there are no problems, everything works well with VGA Bios. Thank you Best regards, Dmitry Bagryanskiy.

Hi, I have a Dell T5500 desktop, and I'd like to know if Coreboot supports this. According to dmidecode, the motherboard is a Dell 0D883F. Thanks. Ram
