Dear Vincenco,
coreboot is extremely architecture dependent. It's hardcore low-level code, maybe lower than the Operating System (or Windows) itself.
You can configure the makefile for your platform using menuconfig or kconfig. De facto Lenovo's thinkpads are the only customer-IT-devices which are supported very well.
Regards,
Philipp

Hello everybody,
It's the time for me to install Coreboot on one of my machine. It seems a very big design !
Please, can you tell me if Coreboot is motherboard architecture dependent or simply I can download it, compile and flash the .rom file in the Bios chip ?
I will do the first test on a PC with motherboard: MSI MS-7168 ver. 1C mounting an AMD Athlon 64 Processor.
Is it necessary I compile Coreboot on the PC where I want to install it ?
Is Coreboot RAM dependent ? That is, can I start-up the PC with only the Processor and the BIOS chip, without RAM and hard-disk ?
Thanks in advance.
I hope to hear you soon.
Best Regards.
Vincenzo.
